Leave St Maarten for St Barths, known as the Côte d’Azur of the Caribbean.

The south end of St Barths offers a beautiful white and sandy beach at Anse de Gouverneur with fantastic scenery, surrounded by hillsides and with views to islands in the distance. The

waters at Gouverneur are excellent for swimming and snorkeling.

In the evening the yacht will move round to Gustavia, taking a berth in the port if available, or sitting at anchor closeby. Gustavia offers fantastic shopping with both local and international designer boutiques, and many excellent restaurants and bars - stop for a cocktail at La Select, home of Jimmy Buffet’s Cheeseburger in Paradise.

Cruise to Colombier beach for lunch and swimming.

Colombier beach is a truly unique place to visit while you are in St Barths. The bay is a secluded paradise with a perfect beach fringed by a smattering of palms and a steep hill. The water is crystal clear and provides a wonderful opportunity to snorkel with many fish, starfish and sea turtles to be seen.

After breakfast, cruise to Saba island, 27 miles away.

Saba looks like a fairy tale picture of a forbidden land. A mere two miles in diameter, it reaches 3,000 feet at its highest point. Tall cliffs of red, pink and brown rise vertically from the sea

and houses sit perched in seemingly impossible positions on the edge of great precipices.

Spend the night at Well’s Bay, have dinner on board and enjoy this magical location, sure to ignite the imaginations of younger travellers.

One of the smallest islands in the Caribbean, Nevis is a little-known wonder with dramatic landscapes featuring a dormant volcano and ruins of historic sugar plantations.

Shopping for handicrafts and batiks, local street markets, and excellent restaurants all provide interesting diversions.

It’s possible to engage in some watersports in one of the many beautiful anchorages, or play a round of golf at the Four Seasons Resort.

Sail from Nevis to its sister island of St Kitts, which is approximately 16 miles away.

This is perhaps the sleepiest island in the Leewards and is a Dutch island of 1,600 inhabitants,

offering unparalleled peace and tranquillity.

Local shopping and tours are easily accomplished on this small, but charming island and the development at Christophe Harbour offers a luxurious and indulgent setting for lunch.

After dinner on board, head towards Anguilla on an overnight on passage.
