Perfect sailing conditions in picture postcard surroundings. The scent of fresh coconut and the sound of steel drums carried on a warm breeze. A Caribbean flotilla is a truly tropical experience. For couples, it's the ultimate romantic escape with long, sandy beaches and tiny desert islands, and for solo travelers and groups of friends it is simply ‘dream’ sailing.
Go out for a meal and you can find yourself eating on a deck built over the ocean or with the backdrop of a tropical rainforest. As you would expect in this exciting colorful part of the world, the gastronomic delights are delicious. New ideas have been fused with the best of traditional island cuisine and local dishes are not to be missed out on – spicy West Indian stews and soups, créole cookery and exotic vegetables such as yams, cassava and okra, to name just a few. And that’s not forgeting the many varieties of fruit, from bananas at their best to fresh coconuts and juicy mangoes.
From this choice of 3 Caribbean flotilla routes, opt for wide, open space and adventure from St.Vincent or stick to short hops in the sheltered British Virgin Islands. Both areas enjoy steady trade winds and line-of-sight navigation.
