Begin your Caribbean bareboat adventure at our base in chilled-out Rodney Bay. You’ll have time to provision your yacht and enjoy the hustle and bustle of Gros Islet before sailing away from the marina towards Pitons Bay. Sail south along the flank of beautiful St. Lucia, passing the broad mouth of Choc Bay and continuing on until the towering Pitons emerge on the horizon. Your first overnight mooring is one of the most beautiful in St. Lucia, with sparkling Pitons Bay basking in the shadow of the island’s two dormant volcanoes. Lounge on the beach or hike into the mountains to uncover unmissable views.
Discover Pitons Bay, visit the beautiful waterfall cascading from the Pitons and bathe in the thermal pool heated by volcanic action, or enjoy a rejuvenating mud bath to give your skin a welcome pampering.
Continue your journey south until the land runs out, casting you adrift in the azure Caribbean Sea. You’ll pass green and mountainous St. Vincent, stopping along the way to break up your journey, and eventually arrive at the welcoming shores of Bequia. Moor in bustling Admiralty Bay, where a wealth of activities awaits you. Explore the town and enjoy a meal in a friendly Caribbean restaurant, head for the beach to swim, snorkel and sunbathe or hike the beautiful trails beyond the town. Visit the Old Hegg Turtle Sanctuary on Bequia’s northeast coast to see juvenile sea turtles and learn more about the conservation of these beautiful creatures.
South from Bequia, the Tobago Cays form a marine park brimming with fascinating wildlife. Sail past the small islets scattered in the ocean between Bequia and Carriacou, anchoring in the sheltered waters of Tobago Cays to explore this unique ocean environment. Snorkel or dive in the company of sea turtles and tropical fish, or relax on the beach with a good book.
A short cruise west through the crystal clear waters of the marine park takes you to the little island of Mayreau, a peaceful spot coated in lush forest and bordered by beaches of powder-fine sand. Moor in the sheltered embrace of Salt Whistle Bay and step ashore to explore the island on foot. You’ll find a quaint traditional village and countless beaches just waiting for you to pull up a patch of sand. Tuck into a tempting lobster barbecue on the beach at Salt Whistle Bay. Caribbean lobsters are abundant and irresistible.
Let the wind fill your sails and gently urge you north, past the scattered islands of the Grenadines and across the Caribbean Sea to St. Vincent. Cruise along the island’s western coast until you arrive at secluded Kearton’s Bay. Here you’ll find a quiet beach of black volcanic sand, and a friendly local café where you can recharge your batteries for further Caribbean adventures.
Leave the shores of St. Vincent behind for now and forge on into the sparkling Caribbean Sea towards St. Lucia. You’ll enjoy a spell of exciting blue water sailing as you pass between the two islands, before tracing St. Lucia’s jade coastline towards Marigot Bay. Discover one of the island’s most beautiful spots, where a glimmering inlet pierces the rich emerald flank of St. Lucia’s west coast. Tuck into some delicious Caribbean delicacies in the shade of gently swaying palms as you watch the world go by.
Make the short journey from Marigot Bay north to Pigeon Island, in sight of our base at Rodney Bay. Sail past the mouth of Choc Bay and across Rodney Bay, anchoring off Pigeon Island to explore this historic part of St. Lucia. Overnight here or just spend the day on shore before taking the short trip back to Rodney Bay Marina.
If you choose to overnight at Pigeon Island then you’ll have an extra day to spend in the blissful Caribbean. Lounge on the beaches at Pigeon Island and Rodney Bay, or head inland to explore bustling Gros Islet and Rodney Bay Village.
