The French Caribbean keeps its own standards. Bread arrives daily by aircraft, the wine list is not an afterthought, and the beaches are managed with a certain indifference to what visitors might expect. St. Barths and St Martin anchor this route at either end.
Between them lie three islands that are not French at all ’ St Kitts, Nevis and Statia ’ volcanic, English or Dutch, and considerably wilder. The contrast is the reason to sail it rather than fly in and stay put.
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 the French Caribbean; the rest we tailor to you.
