Caribbean island hopping from Martinique

Your journey begins with a flight via Paris to Martinique. On arrival you are transferred to St. Anne. At around 6:00 pm it is time for “Welcome aboard”! Once you have settled into your cabins, we raise a welcome drink to the days ahead. Over the first dinner together on deck, guests and crew get to know one another and savour the unique atmosphere of the Caribbean.

After a relaxed breakfast on deck, we cast off. The captain presents the planned route and explains the weather conditions for the days ahead. With a fresh trade wind we sail south through the island world of the Lesser Antilles.

Along the way we enjoy the turquoise sea, the warm Caribbean sun and, with a little luck, our first encounters with dolphins or sea turtles. In the evening we reach the impressive coast of St. Vincent and drop anchor in a sheltered bay.

Today we discover the green volcanic island of St. Vincent. A guided walk takes us past tropical fruit trees, lush vegetation and well-known film sets from “Pirates of the Caribbean”. An idyllic waterfall and a small botanical garden invite you to linger.

In the afternoon we sail into picturesque Cumberland Bay. Surrounded by palm trees, colourful wooden houses and gentle hills, this is the Caribbean at its most authentic. We spend the evening enjoying fresh fish and local specialities.

Today we continue to Bequia, one of the most charming islands of the Grenadines. Off Port Elizabeth we drop anchor in sheltered Admiralty Bay.

The small island delights with its colourful houses, laid-back island life and its long tradition as a centre of boatbuilding. On a stroll through the village, little shops, cafés and markets invite you to explore.

An absolute highlight of the voyage awaits us today. Past the green hills of Canouan we sail to the Tobago Cays, a protected marine park in the heart of the Grenadines.

The water shimmers in spectacular shades of turquoise and blue. The sheltered lagoons offer ideal conditions for swimming, snorkelling and simply unwinding. With a little luck we meet sea turtles or watch colourful shoals of fish among the corals. In the evening we enjoy a breathtaking starry sky, far from any artificial light.

Today we set course for the famous private island of Mustique. Since the 1960s it has been a hideaway for international celebrities, offering a unique blend of luxury and Caribbean ease.

On a stroll through Britannia Bay we discover elegant villas, small boutiques, the fish market and the island’s relaxed atmosphere. We round off the evening in style at the legendary Basil’s Bar.

Today we enjoy a long day under sail heading north. The ship glides across the open sea on the trade wind, while the islands of the Grenadines slowly disappear behind us.

Time to relax, soak up the sun or simply enjoy the unique vastness of the Caribbean. With a little luck, dolphins will accompany us for part of the way.

In the morning we reach St. Lucia. The striking Pitons, the island’s majestic volcanic peaks, greet us from afar.

An excursion takes us through tropical landscapes, past banana plantations and small fishing villages to Soufrière. There the famous Sulphur Springs await, with their steaming pools and impressive volcanic formations. Alternatively, there is time to visit the lively market in Castries or to spend a few relaxing hours on the beach.

Another day devoted entirely to St. Lucia. Whether swimming in a quiet bay, snorkelling in crystal-clear water or exploring ashore on your own – the island offers countless ways to enjoy its tropical nature and Caribbean way of life.

In the evening we spend a final night off the coast of St. Lucia.

Today we sail back to Martinique. Over the last nautical miles we once more savour the special atmosphere on board, the warm breeze and the view across the open sea.

In the evening the festive Captain’s Dinner awaits. Together we look back on the highlights of the voyage.

After breakfast you are transferred to the airport, or you can extend your stay on Martinique at your leisure.

With many unforgettable memories, remarkable encounters with nature and new friendships, an extraordinary sailing voyage through the Caribbean comes to an end.
