One Way Charters from St. Lucia or Martinique to  
Union, Grenada, St. Vincent, Guadeloupe, St. Martin, Antigua

Start your holiday from the splendid island of Martinique (Marina of LE - MARIN), or from St. Lucia you can sail down to the South, exploring St. Vincent, Bequia, Mystique, Cannouan, Tobago Cays and Grenada, or Union Island. Disembarkation will be at an island of your preference, where you can leave the yacht, or alternatively you can sail back to the departure base. 
The trade winds will blow with you; you could then explore more exotic anchorages that you have missed on your way down. There is also a route from Martinique up to the Northern islands, discovering Dominica, Guadeloupe, Antigua, St. Martin, St. Barts, Anguilla, St. Kitts and Nevis. These holidays are the opportunity to explore and experience the unforgettable islands of the tropical region paradise.

The Caribbean's sun shines almost constantly, approximately 12 hours a day. The climate is Utopian, the daily temperatures are fairly consistent all year round, with an average temperature of 27oC.There is in fact only a 3o C difference between the warmest and the coldest months of the Year. The time for sailing is all year round, unlike the European seasons, the main difference between summer and winter is the level of rainfall. The period between December-May is the dry season, apart from the odd shower, during the European summer, conditions are still ideal with refreshing rain showers. The Easterly trade winds that blow all year round and rarely exceed force 5, ensure splendid sailing conditions which combined with the many beautiful and un crowded island anchorages have made the Antilles a sailing paradise for the yacht charterer.

St. Lucia

St. Lucia is a small, lush tropical gem that is still relatively unknown. One of the Windward Islands of the Lesser Antilles, it is located midway down the Eastern Caribbean chain, between Martinique and St. Vincent, and north of Barbados. St. Lucia is only 27 miles long and 14 miles wide, with a shape that is said to resemble either a mango or an avocado (depending on your taste). The Atlantic Ocean kisses its eastern shore, while the beaches of the west coast owe their beauty to the calm Caribbean Sea

Martinique

Martinique lies in the heart of the Caribbean Archipelago and is one of the many islands which make up the group of lesser Antilles, or "Breezy Islands."  The waters lapping at its shores are those of the Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Caribbean Sea to the west. The island is located 4,261 miles from Paris (8 hours by plane), and is 273 miles from the American continent (4.5 hours by plane, direct flight). The closest two neighboring

 islands are Dominica (15.5 miles to the north) and Saint Lucia (23 miles to the south). Martinique is 1,965 miles from New York City, 1,470 miles from Miami, 2,270 miles from Montreal, and 425 miles from San Juan.

St. Matin / St. Maarten               Simpson Bay Lagoon and only 30 minutes from the airport  

Simpson Bay Lagoon Entrance
The Simpson Bay Lagoon, the Caribbean's largest salt water lagoon with a surface area of several square miles, connects the Dutch side of the island with the Northern French half. The lagoon is large enough to allow full size yachts to explore its waters, but being well protected, is ideally suited for small boats. During the winter months, hundreds of yachts are at anchor here and transform the lagoon in a busy community

Explorer Island is an enchanting sight in the center of the Simpson Bay Lagoon and is an ideal stop for a picnic or even a cocktail at sunset. This tiny, uninhabited island of a few acres has a lovely beach with palm trees and is occasionally visited by a pontoon tour boat. Further to the South West, residential developments line the shores, leading into the quiet off-shot, unofficially called 'Mullet Bay Lagoon'. Exploring the Western part of the lagoon, the beautiful million Dollar estate homes of Terres Basses can be viewed.
