NEW YEAR IN THE CARIBBEAN! FAMILY YACHTING ON LESSER ANTILLES

New Year's adventures in the Caribbean! Do you like the idea?

Celebrate New Year in a different way - sailing in the Caribbean. Beautiful French Martinique is waiting for us. This is a mountainous area with an active volcano and its own little Paris - the capital of the island - Fort de France. Narrow streets, fountains, churches, old mansions, many cozy restaurants and Rut de la Tras - a trail in the rainforest among palm trees and tree ferns. We will visit the island of Saint Lucia, and the islands of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Together we will make many interesting new discoveries.

You will live in luxury sailing apartments - on comfortable cruise catamarans with spacious wardroom, comfortable cabins, 4 bathrooms and extensive space for relaxing on the deck. Enjoy the peace and quiet, the beauty of nature, play secret Santa and have fun celebrating the New Year. This time there won’t be snow but it’s going to be fun anyway. The trip is great for families with children.

    Day 2: Sailing to the Martinique capital of Fort de France. We’ll take a walk around the city: go to the botanical Balata garden with thousands of various plants, a lake with lotuses and many hummingbirds. Fort de France is the largest French city in the West Indies. It lies between the hills and the sea. In the center of the city there is La Savane Park with fountains and palm alleys. It is also worth taking a look at the Schoelcher Library building, the Palais de Justice, and the St. Louis Cathedral.

    Day 8: After completing customs formalities, we leave for the island of Mustique, "the island for the chosen." The history of the island is very interesting. In the late 50s of the 20th century, the island was bought by Baron Colin Tennant. He took care of the island and promised the government of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, which formally owns the island, that no one would harm the nature of the island. That is why the beauty of nature and the ecology of the area is unique.
