Caribbean St. Vincent and the Grenadines

Kitesurfing, Wingfoiling & Sailing Cruises in the Grenadines

Our Grenadines kitesurf and wingfoil cruises offer a unique way to explore this Caribbean island chain by yacht, combining watersports, sailing and life on board. Instead of staying in one place, you travel from island to island, discovering a new anchorage and a different experience each day. Mornings begin in quiet bays, afternoons are spent on the water or exploring secluded beaches, and evenings unfold beneath the Caribbean sky, far from crowded resorts.

The Grenadines are often described as one of the most beautiful island chains in the Caribbean—and it’s easy to see why. White sandy beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and a collection of small, unspoilt islands create a setting that feels both remote and effortlessly inviting.

Grenadines Cruising Itinerary & Spot Guide

Departing from Martinique, Saint Lucia, or Saint Vincent, the journey gradually leads south into the heart of the Grenadines — a region known not only for its natural beauty, but also for its unique sense of freedom and simplicity. Along the way, you’ll discover hidden anchorages, swim in warm, crystal-clear water, and, with a bit of luck, encounter sea turtles in their natural habitat.

 

With more than 15 years of experience in the area, our crew knows these islands inside out. The itinerary is shaped by local knowledge and daily conditions, allowing you to experience the very best this region has to offer — both on and off the water. This is not just a trip, but a way of experiencing the Caribbean at its most authentic.

Sailing and Living in the Grenadines

Sailing through the Grenadines is relaxed and accessible. Once inside the island chain, the waters are generally sheltered and the distances between anchorages are short. Most passages take around an hour, leaving plenty of time to enjoy life on board, explore the islands and make the most of the Caribbean surroundings.

A typical day begins with a swim in warm, crystal-clear water while the crew prepares breakfast. Afterwards, the first activity of the day might be snorkeling with sea turtles, hiking ashore, visiting a local village or simply relaxing aboard the yacht.

Around midday, we set sail for the next island. While the catamaran glides towards a new anchorage, you can enjoy a light snack, find a quiet place on deck and watch the Grenadines pass by.

As the sun begins to set, everyone comes together for a sundowner on deck. Dinner is then served on board, bringing another easy-going day in the Caribbean to a close.

Our Catamarans - Your floating home

The yachts in our fleet are far more than standard charter boats. Each one is carefully equipped and configured specifically for our cruises, with a clear focus on comfort, independence, and life on the water.

All cabins offer a high level of privacy, each with its own en-suite bathroom and shower. Generous deck space and multiple lounge areas allow everyone on board to spread out, relax, and enjoy the surroundings — whether together or in quiet moments on their own. ...

The short answer would be – less than half of what you bring on a normal beach holiday. What you need is good sunscreen, ideally a hat and a Lycra shirt to protect you from the sun. You need a couple of Boardshorts / Bikinis, T-Shirts and FlipFlops. A windbreaker or a jumper for the evenings is a good idea. If you can, bring natural shampoo and soap, as it will all go into the ocean right away. A bottle to refill with drinking water is recommended.

Please pack in soft, collapsible bags to allow easy storage. And don´t forget your passport.

Local currency is East Caribbean Dollar (EC) (1 EUR = 3 EC: 1 USD = 2,7 EC). However USD are accepted nearly everywhere. If you need cash for rental, lessons, alcohol, souvenirs etc. we strongly recommend using the ATM at the airport or departure port as the Grenadines ATM is unreliable.
