Martinique & Grenadines
Sail Where the Caribbean Slows Down
The heart of the French Caribbean, where vibrant culture meets wild beauty
Martinique and the Grenadines offer one of the Caribbean’s most authentic and rewarding sailing experiences. From Martinique’s lush volcanic landscapes and French-Caribbean culture to the untouched beauty of the Grenadine islands, this route is all about nature, simplicity, and relaxed island life.
A yacht charter here means steady trade winds, open-water passages, and a string of islands where turquoise bays, white-sand beaches, and welcoming anchorages define each day. Expect fewer crowds, clear waters, and a slower rhythm that invites you to truly disconnect.
Whether you choose a cabin charter or a private yacht, sailing Martinique & the Grenadines is about pure Caribbean freedom — unspoiled, scenic, and deeply memorable.
Reasons to visit
Distinctive French-Caribbean Charm
Sail a route where French elegance meets Caribbean island life, from Martinique’s refined harbours to the laid-back islands of the Grenadines.
Pirates of the Caribbean Film Location
Drop anchor at Petit Tabac in the Tobago Cays — the deserted beach where Jack Sparrow and Elizabeth Swann were marooned in The Curse of the Black Pearl.
Renowned Cuisine & World-Class Rum
Enjoy French-Caribbean cuisine, fresh local seafood, and iconic rum distilleries — with Martinique recognised as one of the Caribbean’s leading rum producers.
Unspoiled Island Beauty
Remote anchorages, protected marine parks, and beaches accessible only by boat create a genuine escape from mass tourism.
