cruise:
Our Caribbean sailing adventure begins in Grenada. We prepare for our journey through the Lesser Antilles towards the north. Grenada welcomes us with the scent of nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves and offers an excellent infrastructure for our provisions.
As soon as we cast off, we set course for the Grenadines. The steady trade winds fill our sails and promise exciting days of sailing. Via Carriacou and Union Island we reach the Tobago Cays, a marine reserve of incomparable beauty. Here we anchor in crystal clear water, surrounded by coral reefs and uninhabited islands. The five small islands of Petit Rameau, Petit Bateau, Baradal, Jamesby and Petit Tabac are a paradise for snorkelers.
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. Further north we reach the charming island of Bequia, the gateway to the Lesser Grenadines.
Our next destination is St. Vincent. In bays like Wallilabou or Cumberland Bay we let ourselves be enchanted by the unique atmosphere. There are still sets from the filming locations of Pirates of the Caribbean.
Further north we reach St. Lucia. We drop anchor in the picturesque Marigot Bay, surrounded by lush greenery. From here we explore the island with its famous Pitons, almost 1000 meter high volcanic cones that are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Finally, we reach our destination, the lively Le Marin on Martinique. This French island is the crowning conclusion of our journey through the Lesser Antilles. In Le Marin, we drop anchor one last time and let our journey come to an end.
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 one-way trip from Grenada to Martinique 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.
