Yacht charter in Grenada, gateway to the Grenadines

Welcome to the Spice Island, or rather islands: Grenada is made up of the main island and six smaller ones at the southern end of the Grenadines. Picture hidden coves, sandy bays, translucent water and beach bars with frosted beers and chilled music, and you are right on the money. Grenada’s fortune was built on nutmeg, plantations still line hillsides rising to over 800 metres, and the mixed French, English and West Indian architecture makes the capital, St George’s, one of the prettiest towns in the Caribbean.

We sail from True Blue Bay Marina, just off the huge sandy expanse of Grand Anse, rated one of the finest beaches in the world. The real beauty of a bareboat charter from Grenada is that it opens up all of the Grenadines, with enough sailing for a fortnight or more: Carriacou, St Vincent, Mustique, Mayreau and Canouan are mostly line-of-sight passages of two to three hours, and these lesser-known islands show you the real, laid-back Caribbean.

Sailing here is for intermediate to experienced sailors, with winds regularly between Force 3 and 6. It is mostly line-of-sight sailing with some open water, so Day Skipper standard is recommended, along with a competent crew. Expect tropical weather with temperatures steady around 30°C and short, sharp showers; winter trade winds blow from the north-east.
