Today is for a stock up on provisions, visit the nearby Kingstown Saturday market, have a boat briefing, and spend the night in the marina getting familiar with the local vibes.
DAY 2 - Sunday: BLUE LAGOON - BEQUIA
Bequia has a unique charm, and a laid back atmosphere. The small town of Port Elizabeth is backed by a natural amphitheater of green hills and the harbor is packed with yachts. You can take a guided tour of the island including a visit to the Turtle Sanctuary, and there are numberous hiking trails for the adventurous. After sunset it’s time for cocktails and a nice dinner at one of several waterfront restaurants.

Enjoy a short sail to Mustique, stopping at Petit Nevis for a refreshing swim.

The island’s natural beauty of dramatic hilltops and pristine palm fringed beaches has attracted visitors for generations.
DAY 4 - Monday: MUSTIQUE - TOBAGO CAYS
An exciting day to visit the Tobago Cays, one of the most beautiful anchorages in the world, these five small islands ringed with coral reefs. Spend the day snorkeling, the wealth of sea life is just extraordinary. Sea turtles and parrot fish are just the start and the coral is gorgeous. Explore the islands ashore, climb for the stunning views and watch the iguanas and land tortoises lumbering around. Prepare your senses for a lovely BBQ lunch with fresh local fish or lobster.
DAY 5 - Tuesday: TOBAGO CAYS - MAYREAU
After breakfast, dip in the water before we go and discover the nearby Petit Tabac Island. Later we drop achor in the breathtaking beauty, the compact palm-covered Salt Whistle Bay. Mayreau is the authentic Grenadines dream. Take a nice evening walk on the beach or a short hike to the top of the hill and admire the breathtaking view. Enjoy a rum punch with the friendly locals in the lively beach bars.
DAY 6 - Wednesday: MAYREAU - UNION ISLAND
We sail downwind for an hour to the postcard-worthy Chatham Bay on Union Island. This large anchorage is a lovely thin crescent of white sand backed by steep, forest-covered hills. The calm turquoise waters are perfect for snorkeling. Cook a lovely dinner with your shipmates and finish the day with stargazing laying at the deck of the boat.
DAY 7 - Friday: UNION ISLAND - BLUE LAGOON
A full day sailing to get back to the gorgeous Blue Lagoon. It’s time to celebrate this unforgettable, exotic week with a wonderful dinner at the marina’s restaurant or try some authentic Caribbean cuisine nearby.
