Martinique, Dominica, (Guadeloupe), Îles des Saintes, Martinique
From Martinique this sailing voyage heads north to Dominica, Guadeloupe and the Îles des Saintes – a relaxed yacht voyage with daily stops and nights at anchor. Time to swim in the morning, for watersports and for going ashore among lush greenery and small island villages.
Highlights
- Dominica: An unspoilt nature island with rainforest, waterfalls and hot springs.
- Guadeloupe: The butterfly-shaped island with mountains in the west and flatter coasts in the east.
- Îles des Saintes: A small group of islands with the bay of Terre-de-Haut, one of the loveliest anchorages in the Caribbean.
- Martinique: Start and finish, shaped by the Montagne Pelée volcano.
The finest way to sail: a new anchorage every day, plenty of time for watersports and going ashore, nights at anchor in a quiet bay and a morning swim before moving on.
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.

Martinique
How the route could go:
-
Martinique (Martinique) · Embarkation
Martinique, the "Flower Island" of the Antilles, is a French overseas department with Creole cuisine, rum distilleries and dramatic volcanic landscapes. Mont Pelée, the volcano that destroyed the old capital Saint-Pierre in 1902, defines the north; Caribbean-French art de vivre shapes the capital Fort-de-France.
-
Dominica (Dominica)
Dominica, the "Nature Island" of the Caribbean, is the most unspoilt of the islands. The Morne Trois Pitons National Park (UNESCO) with the Boiling Lake (a boiling volcanic lake), 365 rivers and the Kalinago Territory (home of the last Caribbean indigenous people) make Dominica unmistakable.
-
(Guadeloupe)
Guadeloupe is a French archipelago in the eastern Caribbean whose two main islands, Grande-Terre and Basse-Terre, form the shape of a butterfly. The active La Soufrière volcano, lush rainforests and Creole culture define this overseas department.
-
Îles des Saintes (Guadeloupe)
The Îles des Saintes are regarded as the most authentic piece of France in the Caribbean: whitewashed houses with blue shutters, fresh tuna, crystal-clear anchorages. Here, time stands still.
