This roundtrip sailing from St. John's explores the northeastern Caribbean, linking refined island capitals with volcanic landscapes and secluded beaches. From chic Gustavia to historic Basseterre and the sands of South Friars Bay, the voyage blends colonial heritage with relaxed coastal settings. The charm of Terre-de-Haut and the beaches of Martinique lead to the rainforest-clad peaks of Cabrits National Park and the volcanic backdrop of Deshaies before returning to Antigua’s celebrated yachting harbour.


Some departures may have slightly modified itineraries. Please confirm the itinerary with an Expedition Specialist.


Highlights


• Contrasting island cultures, from French-infused Gustavia to British-colonial Basseterre.

• Lush rainforest and volcanic scenery in Dominica and Guadeloupe.

• Relaxed beach stops including South Friars Bay and Terre-de-Haut, ideal for swimming and snorkelling.

 

The dockyards, marinas, old inns, venerable pubs and convivial crowds of sun-tanned yacht crews; this is the epicentre of the Caribbean yachting world.

 

In its elegant little capital of Gustavia, French joie de vivre is tempered by Swedish spic and span neatness. Diversions include duty-free shopping in exquisite boutiques, beautiful beaches, excellent dining and people-watching.

 

St. Kitts' was the first successful colony in the British West Indies. Shop in colourful Basseterre, play golf and tour old plantation houses. For the adventuresome there's a brisk hike through the rainforest.

 

The beach we visit is a beautiful beach with golden sands and calm, clear waters, ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The beach is flanked by lush hills and offers a tranquil setting, with several beach bars and restaurants providing a laid-back atmosphere.

 

Les Saintes is a thoroughly entrancing group of islands lying off Guadeloupe. You'll enjoy the superb beaches, snorkelling, diving and other watersports on offer.

 

Martinique's beaches are renowned for their stunning white sands and crystal-clear turquoise waters, offering picturesque spots for both relaxation and water sports.

 

Dominica is a dream-like island, full of surprises. Glide through a steamy orchid-festooned rainforest in a fascinating boat ride or hike to breathtaking Trafalgar Falls and a bubbling lake.

 

Guadeloupe looks like a butterfly from the air. Its giant wings are actually two islands, separated by the Rivière Salée, a natural salt water channel. Basse Terre, the southern or leeward part of Guadeloupe, is lush and rugged, dominated by La Soufrière. A stream of boiling water gushes from the top of the 4,800-ft. mountain, reminding you that this volcano is not dormant, but very much alive.
