The Leeward Islands

Leave the marina and head straight for the water. Find a sheltered bay, launch the toys and settle into the Caribbean before dinner onboard.

Anchor behind the reef and make it an active day. Wakeboard, Seabob, snorkel and paddleboard, then find somewhere quiet for lunch.

Run north to Barbuda and arrive somewhere that feels almost impossibly empty. Walk its pink-tinged beaches, explore by tender and swim in water you’ll barely have to share.

Go further into the island. Visit the frigate bird sanctuary, snorkel the reef and find another empty stretch of coastline for the afternoon.

Return south and change the pace with lunch ashore. Head back onboard afterwards, turn the music up and spend the afternoon on the water.

Follow Antigua’s coast south, stopping wherever looks good. Swim through the afternoon, then head into English Harbour for dinner and a livelier final night.

Wake beneath the hills and step ashore into Nelson’s Dockyard. Climb to Shirley Heights or get back into the water for one last swim before leaving the yacht.
