CARIBBEAN There are three main cruising areas of the Caribbean where the weather is typically good all year round. With constant trade winds and only a small fluctuation in air and water temperature the Caribbean Islands allow for a great charter destination throughout the year.
VIRGIN ISLANDS The Virgin Islands allow for short distance sailing between the islands. Both the U.S. and British Virgin Islands encompass approximately 38 miles of cruising from end to end with a number of excellent anchorages available along the way.
LEEWARD ISLANDS For a cruising area where the distances are greater with more open water sailing between the islands, the Leeward Islands is another popular area for cruising. With islands such as Antigua, rich in English history, and the French and Dutch influences of St. Martin and St. Barths, you can be assured of experiencing a wide variety of cultures. Each island seems to have a character all its own.
WINDWARD ISLANDS Further down the Caribbean Island chain are islands such as Guadeloupe, Martinique, St. Lucia and St. Vincent down to the Grenadines. These islands offer some of the best sailing to be found, again each with their own local color and history. There are a great number of small and unspoiled bays and anchorages to explore throughout this lower Caribbean cruising area.
