Destinations Regions > Caribbean

The beautiful landscapes, temperate waters, and ideal climate of the Caribbean have for decades attracted a large number of superyacht charters, particularly over the winter months. Visitors embarking on a luxury yacht charter in the Caribbean will find diverse natural beauty, vibrant and welcoming cultures, and enough activities to fill an itinerary with exciting things to do. Whether you enjoy volcanic hiking trips, thrilling scuba dives, or idyllic sandspit picnics, there’s something on offer when you rent a yacht in the Caribbean.

Chartering a yacht in the Caribbean offers a paradisiac experience, allowing you to explore a wide variety of tropical islands with azure blue water and white sandy beaches. The Caribbean group of islands consists of the Greater Antilles to the north and the Lesser Antilles to the south, which is divided into the Windward Islands above the Leeward Islands.

The Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos are sometimes included alongside the Caribbean as part of the wider West Indies. The Windward and Leeward Islands were important colonial outposts which have since become popular to cruise on a yacht in the Caribbean for their mountainous terrain and beautiful beaches.

The Leeward Islands, which include some of the most popular yachting destinations to explore on luxury yacht charters in the Caribbean, include the US and the British Virgin Islands, Anguilla, St Maarten, St Barths, St Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, Montserrat, and Guadeloupe, among others. The Windward Islands are also becoming more sought after as a Caribbean charter destination. This breathtaking archipelago includes the islands of Dominica, Martinique, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, and Grenada.

Norman Island, a part of the British Virgin Islands, is a notable mention for its tranquil bays and historical pirate legends, making it a fascinating stop on any Caribbean charter.

If you are travelling from North America, the Caribbean islands are easily accessible, with frequent flights available to various destinations. Puerto Rico, being a central hub, is a convenient starting point for many charter itineraries.

Bahamas

The Bahamas is one of the most popular yacht charter destinations in the world, with its combination of fun, family attractions on New Providence, and the unique beauty of the nearby Exumas Islands, many of which are straight out of a ‘desert island’ film set. Its proximity to the US mainland makes the Bahamas a convenient place for you to rent a yacht in the Caribbean, from just a few days to a few weeks.

Antigua

Antigua is steeped in naval and colonial history, with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere complemented by stunning beaches and some fantastic anchorages and diving spots nearby. The neighboring volcanic island of Montserrat is worth including in any Caribbean yacht charter, with its black-sand beaches and dramatic landscape after a major eruption in the 90s.

St Barths

St Barths is a favorite spot for the jet-set who make their traditional trip to this tiny French-speaking island for Christmas and New Year, with the waters outside Gustavia town packed to the gunwales with superyachts. Luxury boutiques and exuberant beach clubs are as popular as the quieter corners of the island with their surf breaks and snorkelling spots which are always popular with families who charter yachts in the Caribbean.

St Kitts and Nevis

St Kitts and Nevis offer a chance to enjoy a luxury yacht charter in the Caribbean with fewer crowds and a laid-back tempo. The sister islands are both dominated by striking peaks covered in lush, green jungle that is ripe for exploring while the waters nearby are celebrated for their excellent reef and wreck diving.

St Vincent and the Grenadines

St Vincent and the Grenadines is a more remote island group in the Caribbean, making it ideal to visit by yacht. St Vincent and Union islands have hiking trails galore while Bequia is famous for its beautiful beaches and relaxed charm.
