Perhaps the most beautiful trip of the season! On this adventurous two-week sailing voyage we discover four countries and numerous small islands. From lush green Martinique via the striking Piton mountains of St Lucia, from the dazzling white beaches and crystal-clear waters of the Grenadines to the remote, undiscovered jungle paradise of Tobago – this voyage is a true Caribbean adventure.

We start with longer sailing days from Martinique, then switch to shorter legs with plenty of time to relax, explore and enjoy.

A typical fifteen-day trip from Martinique via the Grenadines to Tobago and Trinidad might look like this:

Day 1: Welcome aboard! Enjoy your first swim in the sea in the bay of Le Marin. In the marina of Martinique you can take the dinghy directly to the supermarket jetty.

Day 2: After a restful night we sail from Martinique to St Lucia, famous for its impressive Piton mountains. Local boat boys help us with their knowledge to find the ideal anchorage.

Day 3: Today we set course for Chateaubelair on St Vincent – for many the most beautiful bay in the Caribbean, with countless shades of green and a breathtaking backdrop.

Day 4: We sail on to Young Island. Visit the local market, try authentic Ital food, hike through the jungle, look out for the national green-and-red parrot and discover the lovingly maintained botanical garden.

Day 5: With favourable winds and calm water we sail to Bequia, the vibrant sailing centre of St Vincent and the Grenadines. Discover local handicrafts, admire traditional replicas of whaling boats and find a beautiful souvenir of your visit.

Days 6 and 7: The highlight of the trip: the Tobago Cays. Swim with friendly turtles and colourful fish, watch the waves breaking over the reef, and relax safely at anchor in the calm water behind. If there is a place that feels like the end of the world, this is it.

Day 8: A short sail brings us to the idyllic Chatham Bay on Union Island. There you can snorkel amongst colourful soft corals, hike over rugged paths and watch iguanas. We round off the day with a fresh cocktail by the bonfire on the beach.

Days 9 and 10: We sail for a day, perhaps even a night, to reach Tobago. There the impressively beautiful Pirates Bay awaits us. The next day we go exploring with a local and gather fresh vegetables, fruit and herbs.

Day 11: We sail to Englishman's Bay, an uninhabited bay with wonderful snorkelling spots and a beach so beautiful it's hard to believe that hardly any tourists come here.

Day 12: We continue to Castara, where we take a short hike to a waterfall hidden in the jungle.

Day 13: Today we sail with wind and current towards Trinidad, the island of rainforests, birds and waterfalls. Along the way the colour of the water changes from Atlantic blue to the shimmering shade of the Orinoco estuary. The Bocas, the headlands that form the entrance to Trinidad's inland coast, are simply breathtaking.

Day 14: We undertake an adventurous hike in the mountains of Trinidad and swim in a natural waterfall.

Day 15: After a final morning swim and a relaxed breakfast it's time to say goodbye. With a body full of rest and a heart full of unforgettable memories we return to land.
