Want to escape the bleak British winters? Then head for the tranquility of the Caribbean, with its white sandy beaches, clear blue seas and exotic wild life.

The Caribbean is a perfect winter sailing holiday and yacht charter destination. A quick flight across the pond sends you into a whole new world of sailing. While the wind and rain batter blighty you can relax in the sun on your Caribbean sailing holiday, whether you’re on a yacht charter, skippered charter, flotilla, sailing course or enjoying some of the infamous racing.

Every Island in the Caribbean has its own unique qualities. If you’re looking for a sociable Caribbean sailing holiday, how about a flotilla sailing holiday in the British Virgin Islands (BVI) with plenty of bustling harbours packed with beach side bars and restaurants. However if you’re looking for a quieter yacht charter then head for the Grenadines, with an abundance of areas of outstanding natural beauty and wildlife, take the stress away and add a skipper to your yacht charter. The skipper will act as a tour guide and find those truly local places that can turn a simple holiday into one that you will be talking about for decades to come.
