Westport yachts chartered from Mayaguana offer a genuinely remote experience that the more frequented islands of the Bahamas can no longer provide. Mayaguana is the southernmost and least-visited of the major Bahamian islands, a wide crescent of undeveloped coastline sitting at the junction of the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. The island’s isolation is a feature rather than a limitation, drawing guests who value pristine reefs and complete seclusion.
The Westport fleet available in the Caribbean region combines renowned engineering with interiors crafted for extended cruising. Yachts typically accommodate ten to twelve guests across well-appointed staterooms and carry crew complements designed for effortless service. All provisions and fuel for the Mayaguana circuit are factored into the advance provisioning allowance, which runs at roughly 30 percent of the weekly base rate.
Charter rates for Westport yachts in this part of the Bahamas typically range from 150,000 to 400,000 euros per week depending on vessel size and specification. Peak demand runs from December through April when northerly winds stabilise and the surrounding waters reach exceptional clarity. The winter season also suits extended itineraries toward the Turks and Caicos for guests who want to explore beyond the Bahamian chain.
Mayaguana’s best anchorages cluster around Abraham’s Bay on the southern coast, a broad sheltered cove with a small settlement at its head. From there, Booby Cay to the northwest offers pristine reef diving, Northwest Point faces the open Atlantic, and the short passage south leads to Providenciales and the beaches of the Turks and Caicos.
