Our Caribbean sailing adventure begins in the vibrant port of Le Marin in Martinique.
This French island offers the perfect starting point for our trip through the Lesser Antilles. With its European feel, affordable shopping and first-class infrastructure, Le Marin allows for smooth preparation.
The good flight connections make the journey convenient and affordable.
As soon as we cast off the lines, we set course for the south. The steady trade winds fill our sails and promise exciting days of sailing. Our first main destination is the island of St. Lucia, famous for its majestic Pitons. These almost 1000 meter high volcanic cones are a breathtaking sight and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
We anchor in the picturesque Marigot Bay, a natural harbor surrounded by lush greenery. From here we explore the island, perhaps visit the drive-in volcano Soufrière or relax on one of the many dream beaches.
Further south we reach St. Vincent. Here we dock in bays that might be familiar to film lovers. Some of the most famous scenes from Pirates of the Caribbean were filmed here. The unique landscape and the friendly locals allow us to immerse ourselves in the atmosphere of the Caribbean. A cool rum punch in a local beach bar rounds off the day perfectly.
Our next destination is the charming island of Bequia. With its relaxed atmosphere and the picturesque harbor of Port Elizabeth, it marks the entrance to the Lesser Grenadines. This is where the part of the Caribbean begins that brings postcard images to life: turquoise water, small dream islands and powder-white sandy beaches.
From here we navigate to the Tobago Cays, a marine reserve of incomparable beauty.
We anchor in crystal clear water, surrounded by coral reefs and uninhabited islands. The islands of the Lesser Grenadines are the epitome of Caribbean dreams: fine sandy beaches, lined with palm trees, washed by turquoise blue water. The lush underwater world invites you to snorkel and dive.
A highlight of our trip is certainly the lobster dinner on the beach of a deserted island, under the sparkling starry sky of the Caribbean.
Union Island marks the southernmost point of our trip. From here we set off on the return journey to Martinique in relaxed daily stages. Every day brings new impressions, be it visiting small fishing villages, discovering hidden bays or enjoying the local cuisine in authentic restaurants.
The Caribbean way of life with its stirring music, exotic spices and scents, infectious joie de vivre and relaxed atmosphere will stay with us for a long time. This trip promises not only unforgettable sailing experiences, but also a new perspective on life - a feeling of freedom and serenity that lasts far beyond the vacation.
