Caribbean Yacht Charter

If you want to step away from the glitz and glamour and enjoy nature at its best, then Antigua`s little sister, Barbuda, is the perfect stop on your charter. After being destroyed by Hurricane Irma in 2017, where the entire population was evacuated to Antigua, the island is returning to its former self, and relies heavily on tourism. As the island is largely underdeveloped, it is the perfect habitat for hundreds of species of birds and animals. As Barbuda is composed of Limestone, it has amazing caves and sink holes for you to explore, if you can tear yourself away from the crystal clear waters & soft pink sand beaches.

In the deep south of Antigua, English Harbour has carried its name since the 18th century when the Royal Navy set up its base on these balmy Caribbean shores. It is the epicenter of yachting in Antigua and home to Nelson's Dockyard, a UNESCO-listed site that captures the island's history with real atmosphere.

The old stores have become museums, shops and delightful restaurants - a perfect place to spend an afternoon exploring, sipping something special and gazing at the boats in the marina. Nearby, climb Shirley Heights for jaw-dropping views or relax at Pigeon Point and Galleon Beach. During Sailing Week, charter guests can join the lively ocean-centric fete.

In the Leeward chain of the Caribbean Sea, close to St Martin lies Anguilla, which offers natural beauty and a more relaxed atmosphere, with the island generally less developed and one of the best kept secrets of the area. The locals have kept this pristine paradise from developers and Anguilla therefore attracts a high end clientele.

This Caribbean paradise is known for its ecologically important coral reefs, which are perfect for snorkeling, pristine palm lined beaches where you can enjoy a bbq and cocktail at one of the many vibrant beach bars, or anchor off one of the island`s quiet coves.

Delightfully named as the Caribbean`s hidden gem, Sint Eustatius was once one of the busiest seaports in the whole of the bright blue sea. This was where American and European colonies would turn to for exporting goods, especially as Sint Eustatius was a tax free haven owned by the Dutch. In the late 18th century, the French took hold and the ships all sailed away as heavy taxes were imposed.

Now, Sint Eustatius has a wild and organic vibe that has yet to be devoured by tourism. The beaches are narrow and volcanic and flanked by blue waters, the forests are tropical and laden with fruits, and there's old world forts to explore. Of course, there's plenty of snorkeling and beach combing and the chance to taste eclectic flavours in the island's eateries.

Believed to have earned its name from resembling a canine shape, Dog Island is just 6 miles out from the mainland of Anguilla. A private island of just over 500 acres, it lies just beyond Prickly Pear Cay and Seal Island, making it a great stop in the yacht charter chain.

Mangroves, cacti, sea grapes and prickly pear cloak the island in varying shades of flora, but what truly makes it stand out is the sky full of seabirds: over a hundred thousand pairs and 43 different species. Snorkelers around the protected marine park reefs may glimpse endangered turtles, including the Leatherback, the Hawksbill and the Green Sea Turtle. Bright white sands and turquoise seas set the scene for the ultimate beach experience.

Anguilla is a vision of sleepy white sand beaches, swaying palms, and coconut kisses - but it is also steeped in history too. Big Spring is sure to ignite your fascination as you step back in time and discover a different side of island life. The Big Spring Cave is etched with prehistoric carvings that are believed to date back to Amerindian usage as far back as 600 AD. Once used as a water source, now the Big Spring is all dried up but still creates a cooling oasis thanks to the canopy of the rocks and trees. Oozing with mystical vibes, visiting the cave and seeing the petroglyphs adorning the walls is a must-have experience when visiting the island harbor area.
