Antigua

Antigua may pack 365 beaches into one small island, but with clear seas, consistent breeze and a full regatta calendar, the beaches are just the start. Nestled in the heart of the Caribbean's Leeward Islands, Antigua is the best that sailing has to offer: warm, gentle trade winds, safe anchorages, turquoise waters and deserted white sand beaches.

St Lucia

St. Lucia is like no other Caribbean island. Here you’ll sail a backdrop of lush rainforests, cascading waterfalls, soaring peaks and hidden beaches, anchor in colorful harbours and wake to the symphony of birdsong every morning. St. Lucia, ‘The Jewel of the Windwards’, offers a sailing vacation you won’t soon forget. 

Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico, the Island of Enchantment, is very much open for business as it recovers from Hurricane Maria. The airport is operational, cruise ships have returned, water and power are back and hotels are open. San Juan and the popular destinations are ready to welcome visitors and you’ll find plenty of places to eat and enjoy the local culture in the evening.

Sparkling beaches, such as La Perla and Flamenco, wrap around the main island’s forests and towns, and cover the many smaller surrounding islands. With so many uninhabited islands, there’s plenty of unspoiled paradise for you to discover.

Guadeloupe

Guadeloupe is part of the Leeward Islands and stands out because of its butterfly shape. The eastern wing, Grand-Terre, features Pointe-à-Pitre, the island’s biggest city and center of tourism. The western wing, called Basse-Terre, is less developed and dominated by an impressive national park. A narrow channel called the Salt River separates the two halves of the island.

Belize

Nestled in the lush green heart of Central America and crowned by the world’s second largest barrier reef, Belize is an exotic medley of tropical Caribbean beauty, alluring Mayan culture and welcoming Creole charm. With warm, balmy trade winds, line-of-sight sailing, short passages and miles of cayes and palm-studded beaches, Belize is a sailor’s paradise perfect for experienced sailors.

Cuba

Cuba is the westernmost island of the Greater Antilles, located just 90 miles from Key West, Florida, around an hour of flying time. If short leg island-hopping is your dream charter, this is the perfect destination as the archipelago has 4,000 cays and islets. Your backdrop includes mountains, agricultural valleys with tobacco fields, colorful city architecture and sandy beaches. The famous Havana Club rum can’t go without a mention too!
