Sailing ship cruise: Virgin Islands and Guadeloupe, Caribbean

Boarding on Saturday up to an hour before departure. A brief introduction, a quick drink together in order to better know eachother, and then we will start right from the small port of Philipsburg. But first you can enjoy the beauties of the town, gently stroll along the almost European streets and stock up on souvenirs for your trip, which you can find in one of the many shops in the area.

We set sail from the coasts of St. Maarten to reach Anguilla, a long flat island discovered by Columbus, with a multitude of white sand coves. Visit one of the island's many luxury resorts, an ideal retreat to get away from it all, or try Malliouhana haute cuisine or the atmosphere of the Arabian nights at Pimms.

We raise the anchor and reach our first destination in the Virgin Islands, Virgin Gorda. Here, in one of the magnificent beaches of white soft sand, you can rest in the sun and fill up with vitamin D, or take part in one of the many underwater activities proposed.

We stay in Virgin Gorda, and visit Soper's Hole, the place where "relax" is a jealously cultivated way of life. Visit the nearby ruins of the 17th century Dutch fortress or jump into the many other "water holes", loved by the crews of visiting yachts, where the local gossip flows freely like rum. In addition to these, you can visit unique water caves formed years ago by ancient lava flows. Huge boulders lie scattered around natural pools, where you can swim safely or dive in mineral waters.

We move a little further south, and this time we drop anchor in the crystal clear waters of White Bay, once the refuge of a Dutch pirate of the same name, Jost van Dyke welcomes visitors with first-class hiking trails and the best beaches in the British Virgin Islands. Don't miss out on a delicious drink at the famous Foxy's Tamarind Bar in the Great Harbor.

A sweet awakening, rich breakfast, and then we reach the marvelous island of Saint Kitts, one of the first colonies of western English indies. We visit the colorful Basseterre, where we can have fun playing golf or walking among the ancient buildings used for work on plantations. Later we can relax at the wonderful beach of South Friar's Bay, and for the more adventurous, there will be the opportunity for an exciting rainforest hike!

A rich breakfast at an early hour, and we soon discover the last destination of our journey, the island of St. Barts, which, with its small and elegant capital of Gustavia, will convey us the joy of French life, mitigated by typical Swedish precision and cleanliness. There are so many activities at your disposal: you can choose to have fun with duty-free shopping in exquisite boutiques, visit beautiful beaches, and delight yourself in excellent restaurants. 

After breakfast, we will return to the port of Philipsburg.

We set sail soon after a sweet breakfast, arriving at the enchanting island of Nevis, dotted with ancient sugar plantations, some of which have now been turned into charming inns, many with interesting stories. Dominated by the dangerously steep cliffs of the overlooking mountain, this small Dutch island didn't even have a road  until around 1951. But the dives you can do in this little paradise are definitely out of this world, a unique experience.

After a hearty breakfast, we will have the opportunity to sail side by side with the magnificent Royal Clipper boat, which will accompany us on our journey south to reach the coasts of Dominica. The two luxurious and elegant ships will make their way into the waves of the Caribbean sea, while you can relax on board while drinking a cocktail in one of the lounges or cooling off in the pool. Once we get there, we'll get off and discover all the wonders of the Dominican nature, a dream island full of surprises. Here you can discover the exciting rainforest full of orchids and boiling steam in a fascinating boat trip or take a trip to Trafalgar Falls, a purely breathtaking experience.

We raise the anchor and turn around, almost retracing our steps, and discover the islands "Iles des Saintes", one of the most evocative archipelagos of Guadalupe. Here you will find enchanting beaches where you can relax or sunbathe, or alternatively, immerse yourself in wonderful aquatic adventures with snorkeling, diving and all the water activities available.

After an excellent morning meal, we raise the anchor and set sail for the Guadalupe. These two large and fascinating islands, separated from the Rivière Salée, a natural channel of salt water, are formed by the Basse Terre, the lush and rugged southern part, dominated by La Soufrière. Here we will be able to see with our own eyes the flow of boiling water that flows from the top of the immense mountain that dominates the island, reminding us that this volcano is not inactive, but very alive.

The usual morning meal and then navigation to the north, reaching Antigua, particularly Falmouth Harbor. Epicenter of the Caribbean yachting world, the port of Falmouth is incredibly rich in attractions such as the arsenal, the marina, the old taverns and the famous pubs, as well as a pleasantly friendly spirit of the locals. The old buildings recall the memory of the famous admiral Nelson, one of the greatest naval commanders in history.
