BVI 7-Night Itinerary
A round trip from Tortola with short line-of-sight hops, protected anchorages, and two nights at Anegada.
Day 1: Tortola to Norman Island
Board in Tortola around midday, meet the crew, and head south to Norman Island. Lunch is anchored off Privateer Bay, the cluster of sea caves that R.L. Stevenson had in mind when he wrote Treasure Island; snorkel straight off the swim platform or take the tender into the caves. After lunch the yacht moves five minutes across to The Bight, a big protected horseshoe of an anchorage. Pirate's Bight on the beach has a pool, restaurant, snorkel gear and a bar, or dinghy over to the Willy T floating bar and restaurant for the noisier version of the same idea. The sunset hike up the ridge trail is worth the sweat.
Sailing: 1 hour (7 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: The Bight mooring field (Norman Island), Privateer Bay day anchorage
Recommended Beach: Pirate's Bight beach
Dining: Pirate's Bight, Willy T (William Thornton Floating Bar)
Activities: Embarkation and welcome briefing at the Tortola marina, Lunch and snorkel in Privateer Bay caves, Move into The Bight anchorage, Beach afternoon at Pirate's Bight, Sunset hike on Norman Island trail, Dinner at Pirate's Bight or Willy T
Day 2: The Indians and Peter Island
Wake up in The Bight with coffee on deck, then a short hop to The Indians, four rock pinnacles rising out of the channel between Norman and Pelican. It is one of the best snorkel and scuba sites in the BVI: swim-through arches, coral walls, tarpon, and big schools of blue tang. By lunch the yacht moves round to Little Harbour on Peter Island, tucked into the south coast, where the captain Med-moors with the stern to the rocks ashore so the transom becomes a private swimming pool. Peter Island is mostly private (the resort is closed to the public) but the hikes are open; ask the crew to run you ashore for a walk if you want to move.
Sailing: 1 hour (6 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Little Harbour (Peter Island, med-moor), Great Harbour (Peter Island)
Dining: The Drunken Pelican
Activities: Morning coffee at The Bight, Snorkel or SCUBA at The Indians, Move to Little Harbour, Peter Island, Med-moor stern-to-shore for the afternoon, Watersports off the swim step, Optional hike ashore on Peter Island
Day 3: Cooper Island and The Baths
The yacht heads northeast up the Sir Francis Drake Channel and pulls into Cooper Island Beach Club mid-morning for lunch and a swim. The club is one of the best independent spots in the BVI: solar-powered, with its own rum bar holding the largest selection of rums in the Caribbean. Mid-afternoon, cross to The Baths on the south end of Virgin Gorda, one of the geological wonders of the Caribbean, where house-sized granite boulders pile up against the shore in a tidal maze of caves, ladders and pools. Swim ashore, work through the rocky trail to Devil's Bay, dip in the sand-bottomed pool at the end, and tender back to the yacht. Then move up to Mountain Point for the night and turn off the deck lights once it is dark: phosphorescent plankton in the water, and one of the clearest night skies in the Caribbean.
Sailing: 2.5 hours (18 nautical miles across the day)
Mooring Options: Cooper Island mooring field (lunch), Mountain Point anchorage (overnight)
Recommended Beach: Devil's Bay (via The Baths trail)
Dining: Cooper Island Beach Club, Top of the Baths
Activities: Morning sail up the Sir Francis Drake Channel, Lunch at Cooper Island Beach Club, Afternoon at The Baths and Devil's Bay, Sunset anchoring at Mountain Point, Optional stargazing and phosphorescent plankton swim
Day 4: North Sound
Morning dive or long snorkel around Mountain Point: clear water, big reef structure, resident turtles. If you are diving from the yacht, this is one of the better sites in the northern BVI. Around lunch, head into North Sound, one of the largest and most protected anchorages in the Caribbean, and let the tender open the sound up from there: a snorkel run out to Eustatia Reef, or a beach lunch on Prickly Pear Island. Bitter End Yacht Club is back open after Hurricane Irma and the vibe is the same as it always was, with its dinghy dock, Reef Sampler menu and kite gear for rent. Saba Rock next door is a tiny island turned into a bar-restaurant, famous for the giant tarpon that show up for the happy-hour feeding.
Sailing: 45 minutes (5 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Bitter End Yacht Club moorings, Saba Rock moorings, Leverick Bay
Recommended Beach: Prickly Pear Island beach (by tender)
Dining: Bitter End Yacht Club, Saba Rock Resort
Activities: Morning SCUBA or snorkel at Mountain Point, Sail into North Sound, Lunch anchored near The Sandbox, Watersports afternoon (wake, SUP, kite rental), Happy hour tarpon feeding at Saba Rock, Dinner at Bitter End Yacht Club or Saba Rock
Day 5: Anegada
A leisurely breakfast, then around two hours north to Anegada, the odd one out in the BVI: no volcanic hills, no cliffs, the whole island topping out at 28 feet. The approach is deliberately careful as the yacht threads the reef channel and drops anchor at Setting Point. Take the open-truck taxi (or hire a Moke) from the dock across the island to the north-coast beaches: Cow Wreck, Flash of Beauty, Loblolly Bay. White sand, no infrastructure, unreal water. Divers can head for the wrecks scattered along the reef; the Rocus is the most famous, sitting in 40 feet. Dinner is lobster caught fresh that day at any restaurant on Setting Point: Anegada Beach Club, Wonky Dog, Lobster Trap. Book through the crew.
Sailing: 2 hours (14 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Setting Point mooring field / anchorage
Recommended Beach: Loblolly Bay or Cow Wreck Beach (taxi across)
Dining: Anegada Beach Club, Wonky Dog, Lobster Trap, Tipsy Beach Bar
Activities: Long breakfast at anchor in North Sound, Two-hour sail north to Anegada, Taxi across to Cow Wreck or Loblolly Bay, Afternoon on the north-coast beaches, Sunset back at Setting Point, Lobster dinner ashore (Anegada Beach Club or Wonky Dog)
Day 6: Anegada, second day
A second day at Anegada, and the reason people always wish they had booked longer here. Horseshoe Reef is the world's third-largest coral reef system, and it wraps around the whole east and south sides of Anegada: endless dive and snorkel sites, most days with the boat to yourself. Local guides will run you out to the conch shell mound, a hundred years of fishermen dumping shells in one spot, now visible from the surface. Taxi across to Cow Wreck Beach for lunch; Cow Wreck Beach Bar is exactly what you want it to be, a shack on the sand with painkillers, grilled fresh fish and hammocks strung between the palms, and Flash of Beauty at the east end of Loblolly Bay is the same idea in a smaller size. In the afternoon: kiteboard, paddleboard, or the salt flats for spotting flamingos.
Sailing: No passage today, tender and taxi day
Mooring Options: Setting Point mooring field / anchorage
Recommended Beach: Cow Wreck Beach
Dining: Cow Wreck Beach Bar, Flash of Beauty (Loblolly Bay), Big Bamboo (Loblolly Bay)
Activities: Morning snorkel at Horseshoe Reef with local guide, Visit to the conch shell mound, Taxi across to Cow Wreck Beach, Lunch at Cow Wreck Beach Bar, Flamingo spotting at the salt flats, Kiteboarding or paddleboarding on the flats, Sunset drinks on the beach, Dinner on board or lobster at Setting Point
Day 7: Sandy Spit and Jost Van Dyke
A downwind run over to Jost Van Dyke. First stop is Sandy Spit, a white sand islet off Green Cay with nothing on it: walk around it in sixty seconds, then sit, swim and enjoy. By afternoon you are anchored off Great Harbour or White Bay. Great Harbour is where Foxy's has been running since 1968, with reggae on Fridays, some of the best jerk chicken in the Caribbean, and Foxy himself often still there. White Bay is the postcard: Soggy Dollar Bar (home of the original Painkiller), Hendo's Hideout (conch fritters, day beds), Coco Loco. The walk to the Bubbly Pool, the tide-fed jacuzzi by Diamond Cay, is a good end to the day if you want to move.
Sailing: 4.5 hours (32 nautical miles, the longest leg, downwind)
Mooring Options: Great Harbour mooring field, White Bay moorings (settled weather)
Recommended Beach: White Bay / Sandy Spit
Dining: Foxy's Bar (Great Harbour), Soggy Dollar Bar (White Bay), Hendo's Hideout (White Bay), One Love Bar (White Bay)
Activities: Morning downwind sail to Sandy Spit, Beach walk and swim at Sandy Spit, Afternoon at White Bay, Soggy Dollar Painkillers, Sunset at Foxy's or Hendo's Hideout, Optional walk to the Bubbly Pool
Day 8: Return to Tortola
An early start from Jost Van Dyke and a short sail back across the Sir Francis Drake Channel to the marina in Tortola, with one last swim on the way if the schedule allows. Then it is goodbye to the crew, tips, a group photo, and either the water taxi across to St Thomas or straight to Beef Island airport.
Sailing: 1.5 hours (10 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Road Town marina, Nanny Cay Marina
Dining: Club 1973
Activities: Early departure from Jost Van Dyke, Final swim en route (weather permitting), Return to the Tortola marina, Handover, tips, and group photos with the crew, Departure by water taxi, ferry, or Beef Island airport
Leeward Islands 7-Night Itinerary
A one-way route from Antigua's sailing capital to St Maarten via Barbuda, Nevis, St Barths and Anguilla.
Day 1: Green Island & Nonsuch Bay (Antigua)
Board in Falmouth Harbour around midday, and if the flight schedule allows, walk Nelson's Dockyard first: a Georgian naval yard that has been working continuously since the 1740s, UNESCO-listed since 2016. Then out of the harbour and around Antigua's southeast corner, about 9 miles, into Nonsuch Bay. Green Island sits across the mouth of the bay and its reef knocks the Atlantic flat, so you get open-ocean colour with lagoon-calm water. Anchor behind the island off Rickett's Bay. The flat water inside the reef is a kitesurfing spot, and the 40Knots school operates from the resort shore across the bay if anyone wants a lesson. First dinner on board at anchor, with nothing ashore but pelicans.
Sailing: 1.5 hours (9 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Rickett's Bay anchorage (Green Island), Tenpound Bay
Recommended Beach: Green Island beaches
Activities: Embarkation and welcome briefing in Falmouth Harbour, Visit Nelson's Dockyard before departure, Sail around the southeast corner to Nonsuch Bay, Snorkel the reef off Green Island, Kitesurf lesson in the flat water (40Knots school), First dinner on board at anchor
Day 2: Barbuda (Princess Diana Beach)
An early start for the 32-mile run north. Barbuda is Antigua's flat, empty sister: 11 miles of pale sand along the southwest coast and almost nobody on it. The main beach was renamed for Princess Diana in 2011; she holidayed here repeatedly for the same reason you will. Anchor straight off the sand. In the afternoon, a local boatman runs you into Codrington Lagoon, home to one of the largest magnificent frigatebird colonies in the Caribbean, several thousand birds nesting in the mangroves, the males inflating red throat pouches the size of balloons. Dinner is grilled lobster at Uncle Roddy's, a solar-powered beach restaurant that grills what came out of the water that morning.
Sailing: 4.5 hours (32 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Anchorage off Princess Diana Beach
Recommended Beach: Princess Diana Beach
Dining: Uncle Roddy's Beach Bar & Grill, Wa'Omoni Beach Park (Princess Diana Beach)
Activities: Morning passage north to Barbuda (around 4.5 hours), Beach afternoon on Princess Diana Beach, Frigatebird sanctuary tour in Codrington Lagoon, Lobster dinner at Uncle Roddy's
Day 3: Barbuda (Palmetto Point)
Lay day. Move a couple of miles up the coast to Palmetto Point, where crushed shell turns the sand properly pink: no bars, no loungers, no footprints. This is the day the crew runs a beach barbecue and the paddleboards stay in the water until dark. If anyone wants to move, a taxi crosses the island to Two Foot Bay, where limestone caves open onto the windward coast and the Darby sinkhole hides a pocket of rainforest in the middle of the scrub. Second night at anchor off the pink sand.
Sailing: 30 minutes (3 nautical miles, reposition)
Mooring Options: Palmetto Point anchorage, Low Bay
Recommended Beach: Palmetto Point (pink sand)
Dining: ArtCafe (Codrington)
Activities: Slow morning off Palmetto Point's pink sand, Crew-run beach barbecue, Taxi to Two Foot Bay caves and the Darby sinkhole, Paddleboarding and swimming until sunset
Day 4: Nevis (Pinney's Beach)
The passage day: 52 miles southwest, around seven hours, so the anchor comes up at first light. Nevis announces itself from miles out, a single volcanic cone rising to 985 metres, usually wearing the cloud cap that reminded Columbus of snow and gave the island its name. Anchor off Pinney's Beach, three miles of palms just north of Charlestown, where Alexander Hamilton was born. Sunshine's on the beach mixes the Killer Bee, a rum punch with a reputation it earns, and dinner is up the hill at one of the restored sugar estates, Montpelier or Golden Rock, where the old mill works are now some of the loveliest dining rooms in the Leewards.
Sailing: 7 hours (52 nautical miles, passage day, dawn start)
Mooring Options: Pinney's Beach anchorage, Charlestown moorings
Recommended Beach: Pinney's Beach
Dining: Sunshine's Beach Bar & Grill, Montpelier Plantation & Beach, Golden Rock Inn
Activities: Dawn departure and open-water passage (around 7 hours), Swim off Pinney's Beach, Stroll Charlestown and the Hamilton house museum, Killer Bee rum punch at Sunshine's, Dinner at a restored plantation estate
Day 5: St Barths (Gustavia)
Another proper sail, 47 miles north with the west coast of St Kitts to starboard and Brimstone Hill fortress visible from the water. Then Gustavia: Sweden owned St Barths from 1784 to 1878, named the port after its king, and left behind the tidy grid and the red roofs. Go stern-to in the harbour or take a mooring outside. Shell Beach is a five-minute walk from the dock, Le Select has been pouring on the same corner since 1949 and claims a role in inspiring Cheeseburger in Paradise, and dinner is at Bonito or L'Isola, booked well ahead in season.
Sailing: 6.5 hours (47 nautical miles, passage day)
Mooring Options: Gustavia harbour (stern-to), Gustavia outer moorings
Recommended Beach: Shell Beach
Dining: Le Select, Bonito, L'Isola
Activities: Morning passage past St Kitts and Brimstone Hill, Arrive Gustavia and clear in, Shell Beach swim, Gustavia shopping and harbour walk, Sundowner at Le Select
Day 6: St Barths (Anse de Colombier)
A slow St Barths morning: coffee on deck, a last loop of Gustavia, lunch at Shellona on Shell Beach or at Nikki Beach around on Baie de St Jean. Then just 2 miles around the headland to Anse de Colombier, a beach reachable only by boat or footpath and part of the island's marine reserve. Green turtles graze the seagrass under the boat, and the estate above the point was built by David Rockefeller in the 1960s, which tells you what kind of taste found this bay first. The footpath over to Flamands makes a good pre-dinner walk. Night on a reserve mooring: no road, no lights, no noise.
Sailing: 30 minutes (2 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Anse de Colombier marine reserve moorings
Recommended Beach: Anse de Colombier
Dining: Shellona (Shell Beach), Nikki Beach Saint Barth, La Guerite
Activities: Gustavia morning and lunch ashore, Short hop to Anse de Colombier, Snorkel with green turtles over the seagrass, Walk the coastal footpath toward Flamands, Quiet night on a marine reserve mooring
Day 7: Anguilla (Rendezvous Bay), via Ile Fourchue
Two miles out of Colombier lies Ile Fourchue, an uninhabited horseshoe of five bare hills between St Barths and St Maarten, part of the St Barths marine reserve. Pick up a mooring and spend the morning snorkelling; goats grazed the island bare a century ago and nobody ever moved back in, so you share it with seabirds and the fish. Then 17 miles on to Anguilla, where the crew handles clearance. Rendezvous Bay is 3 kilometres of white sand with Sunshine Shack grilling on it and Bankie Banx's Dune Preserve, a driftwood bar built by a reggae musician, holding down the western end. Stay for sunset, then a night at anchor in the bay.
Sailing: 3 hours (20 nautical miles, including the Ile Fourchue swim stop)
Mooring Options: Rendezvous Bay anchorage, Road Bay (Sandy Ground)
Recommended Beach: Rendezvous Bay
Dining: Sunshine Shack (Rendezvous Bay), Dune Preserve (Rendezvous Bay), Blanchards Beach Shack (Meads Bay)
Activities: Swim stop and snorkel at Ile Fourchue (marine reserve mooring), Sail on to Anguilla, Afternoon on Rendezvous Bay, Barbecue lunch at Sunshine Shack, Sunset at the Dune Preserve
Day 8: St Maarten (Simpson Bay)
A short 8-mile hop across the Anguilla Channel to finish. St Maarten has been split between France and the Netherlands since 1648, which makes it one of the oldest shared borders in the world and doubles the restaurant count. Into Simpson Bay for handover, tips, and a group photo with the crew. SXM has direct KLM and Air France lift back to Amsterdam and Paris, and if the flight is an evening one, lunch in Grand Case on the French side, a single street of restaurants that outcooks islands ten times its size.
Sailing: 1.5 hours (8 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Simpson Bay anchorage, Simpson Bay marinas
Dining: SkipJack's (Simpson Bay), Talk of the Town (Grand Case lolos)
Activities: Morning crossing of the Anguilla Channel, Arrival Simpson Bay and disembarkation, Optional lunch in Grand Case, Departure from SXM
Grenadines 7-Night Itinerary
A one-way route from St Lucia's Pitons to Grenada through Bequia, Mustique, the Tobago Cays and Carriacou.
Day 1: The Pitons (Soufriere, St Lucia)
Board at Rodney Bay, then run 20 miles down St Lucia's leeward coast with the whole green west side of the island sliding past. Anchoring is banned inside the Soufriere Marine Management Area, so a ranger assigns you a mooring under Petit Piton. The two Pitons, Gros at 798 metres and Petit at 743, have been UNESCO-listed since 2004 and look implausible from a deck chair. Late afternoon options: the Sulphur Springs mud baths at the drive-in volcano, or a snorkel off Anse Chastanet's reef. Dinner at Dasheene, on the ridge directly between the two peaks, where the view does half the work and the kitchen does the rest anyway.
Sailing: 3 hours (20 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: SMMA moorings beneath Petit Piton, Soufriere Bay moorings
Recommended Beach: Sugar Beach (Anse des Pitons)
Dining: Dasheene at Ladera, Boucan by Hotel Chocolat
Activities: Embarkation at Rodney Bay, Coastal run down St Lucia's west side, SMMA mooring beneath Petit Piton, Sulphur Springs mud baths, Snorkel at Anse Chastanet, Dinner at Dasheene
Day 2: Bequia (Admiralty Bay)
The passage day: 51 miles south past the full length of St Vincent, with La Soufriere, the volcano that last erupted in April 2021, standing at its northern end. Around seven hours under way, flying fish for company, arriving mid-afternoon in Admiralty Bay, one of the great natural harbours of the Windwards. Bequia is the last of the Caribbean's working boatbuilding islands. Walk the Belmont Walkway to Princess Margaret Beach, named after her 1958 visit, take sundowners at Jack's on the sand, and try the lobster pizza at Mac's, famous since the 1980s.
Sailing: 7 hours (51 nautical miles, passage day, dawn start)
Mooring Options: Admiralty Bay moorings and anchorage
Recommended Beach: Princess Margaret Beach
Dining: Jack's Beach Bar, Mac's Pizza & Kitchen, Frangipani Hotel (Thursday jump-up)
Activities: Dawn departure for the passage past St Vincent, Arrive Admiralty Bay mid-afternoon, Belmont Walkway to Princess Margaret Beach, Model-boat workshops in Port Elizabeth, Sundowners at Jack's Beach Bar
Day 3: Mustique (Britannia Bay)
A 9-mile morning hop. Mustique has been a private island since Colin Tennant bought it in 1958 and gave Princess Margaret a ten-acre plot as a wedding gift; roughly a hundred villas share it now, and the guest book runs from Bowie and Jagger onward. Yachts take a mooring at Britannia Bay. Rent a mule, the island's golf-cart taxi, for a tour: Macaroni Beach on the windward side is the swim, the tortoises own the roads, and the villa gates give nothing away. Basil's Bar, rebuilt over the water to a Philippe Starck design, runs its jump-up barbecue on Wednesdays and a blues festival at the end of January that pulls names far bigger than the room.
Sailing: 1.5 hours (9 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Britannia Bay moorings
Recommended Beach: Macaroni Beach
Dining: Basil's Bar, The Cotton House, Firefly Mustique
Activities: Morning sail to Britannia Bay mooring, Island tour by mule, Swim at Macaroni Beach, Snorkel at Lagoon Bay, Sunset and dinner at Basil's Bar
Day 4: Tobago Cays (Baradal)
Eighteen miles down past Canouan and into the Tobago Cays: five uninhabited islets behind Horseshoe Reef, all of it a protected marine park. Anchor in the lee of Baradal, whose seagrass beds are a turtle sanctuary; green turtles graze in chest-deep water and could not care less about you. The reef keeps the Atlantic out and the anchorage flat while the wind blows clean across it. Petit Tabac, the palm-tuft islet outside the reef, is where Captain Jack Sparrow was marooned in Pirates of the Caribbean, and the tender will run you over. In the evening the licensed boat vendors lay on a lobster barbecue on Petit Bateau, tables in the sand, booked through the crew.
Sailing: 3 hours (18 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Baradal anchorage (Tobago Cays Marine Park)
Recommended Beach: Petit Bateau
Dining: Beach barbecue on Petit Bateau (licensed park vendors)
Activities: Sail past Canouan into the marine park, Swim with green turtles at the Baradal sanctuary, Snorkel Horseshoe Reef, Tender trip to Petit Tabac, Lobster beach barbecue on Petit Bateau
Day 5: Tobago Cays, second day
The extra day nobody has ever regretted. The yacht stays put and the toys do the work: the outer reef and World's End Reef for snorkelling or diving, flat protected water behind Horseshoe Reef for kitesurfing, and miles of sandbars in between. For lunch, tender across to Mayreau, the smallest inhabited island in the Grenadines, a few hundred people and one road. Salt Whistle Bay at its north end is a double-sided sandspit with palms down the middle, and Righteous & The Youths serves conch and rum in a room that is half bar, half museum. Back to the Cays for a second night; there is no light pollution for miles, so the stars put on the late show.
Sailing: No passage today, tender and toys day
Mooring Options: Baradal anchorage (Tobago Cays Marine Park)
Recommended Beach: Salt Whistle Bay, Mayreau (by tender)
Dining: Righteous & The Youths (Mayreau)
Activities: Snorkel or dive World's End Reef, Kitesurfing in the flat water behind the reef, Tender to Mayreau and Salt Whistle Bay, Lunch at Righteous & The Youths, Stargazing from the deck
Day 6: Union Island (Chatham Bay)
Six miles, with a stop at Clifton first: the crew clears you out of St Vincent and the Grenadines while you have a drink at Happy Island, a bar that Janti Ramage built by hand on the reef edge out of conch shells, starting in 2002. It is exactly as good as it sounds. Then around Union's south side to Chatham Bay, a wide undeveloped amphitheatre of a bay with a handful of beach shacks grilling the day's catch and nothing else on it. Sun Beach & Eat does fish and lobster with your feet in the sand. Night at anchor under the ridge.
Sailing: 1 hour (6 nautical miles, clearance stop at Clifton)
Mooring Options: Chatham Bay anchorage, Clifton moorings (clearance)
Recommended Beach: Chatham Bay
Dining: Happy Island (Clifton), Sun Beach & Eat (Chatham Bay)
Activities: Clearance stop at Clifton, A drink at Happy Island, Round to Chatham Bay, Swim off the yacht, Grilled catch at the beach shacks
Day 7: Carriacou (Sandy Island & Tyrrel Bay)
Seven miles into Grenadian waters; the crew clears in at Hillsborough or Tyrrel Bay. Sandy Island, just off Hillsborough, is a sliver of sand and young palms inside a marine protected area, with moorings for lunch and the easiest good snorkel of the whole route along its reef. Carriacou is the largest of the Grenadines and still builds wooden boats at Windward village, a trade brought by Scottish shipwrights in the 1800s; the skeletons of new hulls stand right by the road. Paradise Beach at L'Esterre earns its name quietly. Night in Tyrrel Bay, dinner ashore.
Sailing: 1 hour (7 nautical miles)
Mooring Options: Sandy Island moorings (lunch), Tyrrel Bay (overnight)
Recommended Beach: Paradise Beach (L'Esterre)
Dining: Paradise Beach Club (L'Esterre), Lazy Turtle (Tyrrel Bay)
Activities: Clear into Grenada at Hillsborough or Tyrrel Bay, Mooring at Sandy Island for lunch and snorkelling, Visit the Windward village boatyards, Afternoon on Paradise Beach, Dinner in Tyrrel Bay
Day 8: Grenada (Port Louis, St George's)
The last leg: 32 miles down Grenada's leeward coast with the rainforest ridgeline to port. If the schedule allows, pick up a mooring at Moliniere Bay for the Underwater Sculpture Park, the first of its kind in the world, installed by Jason deCaires Taylor in 2006, life-size figures slowly turning into reef in 5 metres of water. Into Port Louis Marina beneath St George's, a horseshoe harbour town stacked up the hillside in brick and fish-scale tile, for handover, tips, and a group photo. The airport is a short taxi away, and if there is time, the spice market two streets up sells the nutmeg that made the island's name.
Sailing: 4.5 hours (32 nautical miles, optional Moliniere sculpture park stop)
Mooring Options: Port Louis Marina, Moliniere Bay moorings (en route)
Dining: BB's Crabback (St George's), Umbrellas Beach Bar (Grand Anse)
Activities: Leeward coast run south, Snorkel stop at the Moliniere Underwater Sculpture Park, Arrival at Port Louis Marina, St George's spice market if time allows, Disembarkation and transfer to GND
