Term Charter package holiday

Family Fun

Family Fun

This package offers a series of short Day Sails around the island stopping at venues that provide entertainment for the children to enjoy – hence increasing the enjoyment of the parents!

We stop at sandy beaches with plenty of opportunity for children to “let off steam”- maybe to play “Pirates of the Caribbean”, a ruined Fort for them to explore, a visit to Stingray City to have “close encounters” with the rays, even a chance for the swimmers to snorkel on a submerged wreck. We have all the necessary safety equipment for children, also small sizes of snorkelling gear and “noodle” flotation devices to have fun with.

The whole family are given the chance to enjoy the experience of helming a 40ft sailing yacht.

Round the Island Tour

Round the Island Tour

This package offers the chance to take in all the coastal attractions that make Antigua famous.

Visit the small offshore islands that are Nature Reserves – Great Bird Island, Green Island, Maiden Island – just a few of the spectacular locations where the main inhabitants are the birds, and the dramatic rocky coastline gives superb photo opportunities. Snorkel Coral Reefs and see the beauty of the tropical fishes below the turquoise Caribbean Sea. Dock at the historic Nelson’s Dockyard and discover what made English Harbour one of the most famous Natural Harbours in the world. Enjoy a Caribbean party at Shirley Heights ‘Lookout’, while taking in the breathtaking views of the island around you.

Maybe your preference is more for town than remote coastline with exploration of St John’s with its local Market, Duty Free Shopping and Craft shops. You could even stay for a while to enjoy the nightlife! The main thing is that we plan your itinerary to take in the things you choose to do.

Round the Island Tour

Adventure Sailing

Adventure Sailing

This is a package for experienced sailors who enjoy longer passages offshore - the emphasis is on the sailing rather than tourism, although there are opportunities to go ashore at islands visited, we do not spend long at any one destination. Mileage building is an obvious benefit of this style of cruising.

There are overnight passages in open Atlantic conditions taking us to islands such as Guadeloupe, Isles des Saintes, Marie Galante and Martinique, even nearby Barbuda can be challenging from a navigational point of view, and involves at least a 6 hour passage.

Passage Planning is part of the experience for our guests who help to create the itinerary to suit their requirements and the prevailing weather conditions.

This is self explanatory! You tell us your cruising dates and tell us what you imagine a perfect sailing holiday would include. We do our utmost to put together a package that will realise your dreams. It maybe that “heaven” is relaxing on a deserted beach, or perhaps exploration of the underwater world among the myriad of coral reefs the island is famous for. Spectacular photo opportunities abound everywhere along the rocky coastlines of Antigua.

Whatever your preference we will aim to provide the best holiday of your life!
