Sailing trip Grenada
Sailing from island to island from Grenada
The dream destination for sailors: pure Caribbean and island hopping through the ‘Windward Islands’ – dreamlike sailing in the picture-book Caribbean.
Our voyage takes us through the Grenadines, past the most beautiful islands and dream spots the Caribbean has to offer. A cruise through this region really does offer everything: deserted beaches, fascinating underwater worlds and unique experiences on every new day.
Whether you’re climbing the legendary Pitons or other mist-shrouded volcanic mountains in Saint Lucia, poking around the sets for “Pirates of the Caribbean” in Wallilabou Bay on Saint Vincent or snorkelling with rays or turtles in Horseshoe Reef, these cruises – one week from Grenada to St. Lucia and the other week back – connect what are generally thought of as quintessential Caribbean islands.
Arrival & Departure
Grenada is regularly served by several airlines. There are direct flights from London or you can travel via Canada or the USA. St. Lucia also from London or with the island hopper flight to Barbados, where you can board the Condor. Our sales team and our partner travel agency will be happy to assist you with your journey.
Wind & Weather
We only sail outside the hurricane season, i.e. from December to April in the Caribbean.
The constant trade winds that blow 9 out of 10 days – unique in the world – make this region a paradise for sailors. The trade winds can sometimes reach up to force 6, just right for our large sailing yachts…

Highlights
We start on the spice island of Grenada (a visit to the Nutmeg Museum is well worthwhile) and sail north from there via Carriacou and the small sandbank of Mopion Island to the Tobago Cays, a small group of five islets protected from the open sea by the famous Horseshoe Reef. A place of longing for all Caribbean lovers with a postcard idyll.
We sail on via the former whaling island of Bequia and the well-kept celebrity island of Mustique to St. Vincent and Wallilabou Bay, all the way to St. Lucia with its unique volcanic mountains and botanical gardens inland. Next to the two Pitons (volcanic cones) and the famous Marigot Bay (where the Pina Colada was allegedly invented) it offers much more…
Our insider tip: In addition to delicious cocktails, Basil’s Bar on Mustique also tells (old) stories about Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and the Stones. Because they both have a villa there.
Does another Caribbean area suit you better?
The Grenadines show the Caribbean at its most unspoiled: quiet bays, crystal-clear snorkelling grounds and slightly longer, sportier legs under a dependable trade wind. If you prefer something else:
For a comfortable, classic sailing trip with sheltered bays and countless dream beaches there is a sailing trip around Antigua. The most relaxed area, and the friendliest to beginners, with calm waters and short legs, are the British Virgin Islands. Cultural variety with French flair, Creole cuisine and volcanic nature awaits on a sailing trip from Martinique.
Which area suits you is shown in our overview of the Caribbean sailing areas.
