DAY 1
St. Vincent to Mustique
You may want to start in St. Vincent or Grenada depending on your preference. If starting in St Vincent you join your yacht at anchor at Young Island Cut. Once onboard your Captain will give a safety briefing and yacht orientation before you set off for the glamorous island of Mustique.
This is one of the most exclusive islands in the world and is frequented by not only the rich and famous but also royalty. The island is surrounded by sandy beaches, coral reefs, and beautiful bays. Take a private island tour or a horseback riding trip along many trails. Your chef can prepare a picnic lunch for you, which you can enjoy on idyllic Pasture Beach or Macaroni Bay. Here you can swim and walk barefoot in the deep soft white sand. At happy hour, you never know who you may rub shoulders with at the famous Basil’s Beach Bar in Britannia Bay.
DAY 2
Mayreau
Enjoy a scrumptious breakfast onboard and take in the views as your crew lift the anchor and set sail to Salt Whistle Bay on the northern tip of Mayreau. This is the smallest inhabited island in the island chain having around 300 residents.
Choose between a windward beach and watch the kiteboarders rip across the water or a leeward beach, perfect for a cooler and lunch under a coconut palm tree. Local islanders sell their jewelry, shells, handcrafted art, and T-shirts under thatched huts near the dock at the southern end. Tonight is perfect for that lobster dinner cooked on an outdoor barbecue.
DAY 3
Petit St. Vincent
Today is a short sail over to Mopion Island. This is a tiny Sandy spit which makes you feel like you are washed up after a shipwreck. The island is a hidden gem and is surrounded by some fantastic snorkeling opportunities.
Another short sail takes you to the very quiet, privately owned, exclusive resort island of Petit St. Vincent. Stroll along pristine beaches, relax with a cocktail, overlooking the bay in a charming stone restaurant/bar, or stay on board and enjoy the sunset on the flybridge of your luxury yacht while the chef prepares another delicious dinner.

DAY 4 and 5
Tabago cays
After breakfast, your crew will sail you over to Clifton Harbour on Union Island. While you complete check-in formalities for the Grenada territory, shop for a cold coconut with or without a splash of rum. Since the Tobago Cays offer such beauty, we will spend two nights among the five uninhabited islands which are protected by the circular Horseshoe Reef.
This National Marine Park gives you a chance to unwind and relax. Spend your days snorkeling the nearby coral reefs, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, or hiking around to explore these idyllic cays. For the more adventurous, the Captain will take you outside the coral reef to see some deeper water creatures and tons of marine life, including reef sharks. If you would like to completely relax, just find a comfortable place on deck to read your book while enjoying the warm Caribbean sunshine and a cool drink.
DAY 6
Canouan
A little upwind sailing takes you back north to Tamarind Bay on the Northern side of Canouan. This small island, with its hilly interior, is a welcome sight for those looking for a little luxury. Treat yourself to a massage in the spa at the luxurious Mandarin Oriental Resort or tee off at the golf club of Canouan Estate.
The island is known for its beaches, including Grand Bay Beach, near the main town of Charlestown, and South Glossy Bay, with its calm waters and views of the southern Grenadines. Sitting high up on a hill, with sweeping views of large coral reefs, the Villa Monte Carlo offers a European-style casino with panoramic views to the south from its summit. Explore ashore or relax on the upper deck of your private yacht.
DAY 7
Bequia
Today you will have a longer sail Northward to the lush green island of Bequia. Your Captain will drop anchor in the calm waters of Admiralty Bay. Local craftsmen show off their beautifully hand-carved sailboats while other vendors sell various souvenirs along the colorful Caribbean waterfront.
Wander the streets and enjoy the local culture or explore a little further inland along winding roads. For a historical tour, visit the Hamilton Fort at the northern point of Admiralty Bay. Snorkel and swim around your yacht and look out for flying gurnard with their colorful “wings”. These are bottom-dwelling fish but do fly. The nearby Devil’s Table dive site is a must for Scuba lovers. Dive boats are standing by to take you to nearby sites. Enjoy a sunset cocktail on the veranda of the Frangipani Hotel before heading back for dinner onboard.
DAY 8
St. vincent
Sadly it is time to say farewell to these beautiful islands. After breakfast set sail and enjoy the sun on your face and the wind in your hair, as you head North to Young Island Cut. Your crew helps you and your luggage ashore and arranges transportation to the airport or to your villa, if you chose to stay an extra night.
If you have time before departure, let us plan an island excursion for you where you can rent a 4×4 vehicle and drive north to the Bamboo Forest and hike the La Soufriere cross-country trail to the top of the majestic volcano.
