St Lucia is volcanic and steep, and the Pitons ’ two lava spires rising eight hundred metres straight from the sea ’ are the most recognisable landfall in the Caribbean. The island changed hands between Britain and France fourteen times, which explains both the Creole and the cooking.
The route runs south from there, down through the Grenadines, where the islands shrink and multiply and the water shallows to a colour that looks retouched. It ends on Grenada, which grows nutmeg and cocoa and makes some of the best rum in the region.
Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain who knows the cove worth the detour. That freedom is the point of chartering. What follows is one considered way to read St Lucia and the Grenadines; the rest we tailor to you.
