Guadeloupe Bareboat Yacht Charter

Overview

Guadeloupe is an island divided by a narrow mangrove channel into two halves. From Pointe-à-Pitre, plot your course on a Guadeloupe yacht charter and head south to some of the most untouched islands and amazing rainforest that the Caribbean has to offer, or sail north for more challenging blue water cruising.

Sunsail's new Preferred Partner, SPARKLING CHARTER, will deliver your Guadeloupe vacation to Sunsail's exacting standards. Mathieu JONES and his team of experts welcome you to the base in Bas-du Fort marina. This marina which is located in Pointe à Pitre Bay, next to Rivière Salée, is conceived for sailors’ comfort and pleasure

Basse Terre offers some exceptional views and sites. Route de la Traversee runs through the national park. Make sure you don’t miss the Crayfish waterfall for some amazing sights and a refreshing swim. For a more dramatic sight head to the south of Basse Terre and visit the famous 350ft Carbet Waterfalls.

Possibly the most unspoilt island in the Caribbean, the British Commonwealth island of Dominica is a nature lover’s paradise. The sparsely populated Les Saintes offers a charming welcome to visiting sailors. Savour the sights and smells of local fishing ports and colorful markets.

Rated as one of the best dive sites in the world by its namesake, the Jacques Cousteau reserve is home to an abundance of colorful coral forests and multicolored marine life. Spending a few hours snorkeling or diving these waters close to Pigeon Island, home to the famous Cousteau Underwater Park, is an experience not to be missed.
