Quick facts about sailing trips around Martinique

Top highlights & sights around Martinique

St. Lucia - green island with striking Pitons

St. Lucia inspires with its imposing volcanic mountains, the Pitons, which rise majestically from the sea and are among the most iconic motifs in the Caribbean. Dense rainforests, hot springs, colorful markets and beautiful bays such as Marigot Bay give the island its unique character. On a shore excursion, you will experience the tropical diversity: small fishing villages, lush vegetation and viewpoints that offer spectacular panoramas of the coast and jungle. Visitors to the island will experience a fascinating mixture of nature, culture and Caribbean joie de vivre.

Grenadines - turquoise lagoons & island paradises

The Grenadines are among the most beautiful archipelagos in the world: crystal-clear lagoons, snow-white sandy beaches, colorful reefs and small islands that are often only accessible by yacht. Bequia enchants with its relaxed island life and maritime flair, Mustique with its exclusive atmosphere and elegant retreats. The Tobago Cays, on the other hand, are a true natural paradise – ideal for snorkeling with turtles or relaxing in the shallow, turquoise waters. The Grenadines are a picture-book Caribbean: quiet, pristine and simply beautiful.

Dominica - the "nature island" of the Caribbean

Dominica is a tropical natural wonder and one of the most pristine islands in the Caribbean. Waterfalls, rivers, hot springs, tropical rainforests and traditional villages characterize the landscape and make the island a paradise for nature lovers. A shore excursion opens up a world of untouched vegetation, botanical diversity and spectacular viewpoints. Dominica is an impressive contrast to the more French-influenced islands – wild, authentic and full of natural energy.

Îles des Saintes - French flair in miniature format

The Îles des Saintes are a charming, small group of islands south of Guadeloupe, characterized by pastel-colored houses, small cafés, boutiques and crystal-clear bays. The harbor of Terre-de-Haut is one of the most beautiful in the Caribbean and invites you to take a relaxing stroll. Turquoise beaches, rolling hills and a French Caribbean attitude to life merge here to create an atmosphere that is immediately enchanting. The Saintes are a real highlight of any northern route – stylish, relaxed and ideal for a leisurely shore leave.

For your summer sailing vacation, we recommend light, comfortable clothing, sturdy shoes for shore excursions, swimwear, possibly a windbreaker and a sun hat. It is best to travel with soft travel bags, as they are easier to stow in the cabins and offer more space than suitcases.

Our cabins are comfortable and well-designed, with a wardrobe, shelves and storage space under the beds. There is plenty of space for the duration of the trip, and foldable travel bags are the best option instead of hard-shell suitcases.
