THE DESTINATIONS

 
 
BAHAMAS

Includes the Exumas and the Abacos

Located off the South Eastern coast of Florida, the Bahamas are a pure tropical playground. Boasting the clearest crystal blue waters in the world, spanning over 250,000KM2, the area is dotted with over 2000 alluring cays and islets and 700 islands.  Discover remote secluded beaches with glittering white sand, and the underwater paradise with the splendours of the brightly coloured tropical fish around the barrier reefs.

 
LEEWARD ISLANDS

Includes Antigua and Guadeloupe, the British and US Virgin Islands, St Maarten and St Barths.

This archipelago of lush volcanic islands surrounded by turquoise waters has always been popular for yachting. Explore the wonderous beauty of some of the numerous diving reserves  with the rich backdrop of lush dense rainforest.

 

 
WINDWARD ISLANDS

Includes Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada and Dominica.

At the origin of many a pirate tale, the lesser known Windward Islands offer everything one could want from a Caribbean experience including rich marine life and rugged coastlines contrasting with enchanting beaches. They promise great island to island sailing.

 

 
GREATER ANTILLES
Includes Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica and Puerto Rico.

South of the Bahamas, the Greater Antilles islands are a picturesque playground for water lovers. Soak up the sun and unwind in this tropical paradise, where the exotic flora and fauna, white sands and dramatic headlands promise a real escape. Unforgettable sunsets guaranteed!

 
Welcome to the Bahama Blues! A visual bouquet of the bluest water you’ve ever seen. The urge to dive in is too great to hold back. Refresh and rejuvenate in the sea while swimming, diving, having fun with water sports or fishing; only coming back aboard your yacht for a professionally prepared meal and a glass of your favorite beverage, then take a slow cruise to the next superb setting in this luscious island nation.
