Regatta in Antigua
This yacht voyage runs from Antigua via Barbuda and St Barth to St Martin, around the St Barths Bucket Regatta. A fine route with stops for swimming and going ashore, together with longer legs, some reaching into the night.
Highlights
- Barbuda: Long, pale sandy beaches and the frigatebird lagoon.
- St Barth: The elegant harbour of Gustavia, setting for the St Barths Bucket Regatta of large sailing yachts.
- St Martin: An island shared between its Dutch and French sides.
A yacht voyage with beautiful stops for watersports and time ashore, but also longer legs sailed in part through the night. For everyone who enjoys the sailing itself.
Early booking advantage: Voyages in 2027 fill quickly - premium cabins are often reserved 18-24 months in advance. An early booking enquiry is non-binding and secures your preferred cabin category.
The Route
Antigua
10 nights
St Martin
How the route could go:
-
Antigua (Antigua) · Embarkation
Antigua is the yachting island par excellence: 365 beaches (one for every day), historic Nelson's Dockyard (UNESCO) as the world's only surviving Georgian naval dockyard, and the annual Antigua Sailing Week make the island a world-class yachting destination.
-
Barbuda
Barbuda is the sparsely populated sister island of Antigua. Pink Sand Beach - one of the longest pink-sand beaches in the world - and the Frigatebird Sanctuary with more than 5,000 nesting frigatebirds make Barbuda unmistakable.
-
St Barths
-
"Bucket Regatta"
The Bucket Regatta is a renowned gathering of classic large sailing yachts and modern superyachts, held each year in the Caribbean off Saint Barthélemy. Rather than chasing record times, it celebrates elegant racing among friends, with yachts over 30 metres in length on the start line.
-
St Martin · Disembarkation
St. Martin is the only island in the world divided between two nations - France (Saint-Martin in the north) and the Netherlands (Sint Maarten in the south). French bakeries, Dutch casinos and 37 beaches on 87 km² - a Caribbean best-of in miniature format.
The route of a sailing voyage may change without giving rise to mutual claims.
