5-Day Full Board Private Cruise to Guadeloupe

er and hoist the sails in the direction of Marie-Galante. Fishermen will be able to launch the line while sailing enthusiasts or simply the most curious will come to talk with the captain, always ready to share his experiences.

Here we are on our first stopover. Anchored in front of one of the most beautiful beaches of the archipelago, in the middle of warm and turquoise water and at the foot of limestone cliffs, the atmosphere inspires calm and serenity. After lunch, everyone can go about their business: swimming, kayaking, stand-up paddle, lazing. Swimmers will observe tropical fish and may see starfish, pastenague skates, eagle-leopards, or torpedoes.

We will spend the evening and our first night in the Bay of Saint Louis, opposite the lighthouse. This village is the landmark of every good sailor in the West Indies.

After picking up the rental car, we will make a first stop at the mangrove grove that borders the beautiful beach of the old fort.

Our journey will take us to this impressive abyss open to the ocean.

We are now in front of a newly restored windmill. At the time, these mills were used to extract juice from sugar cane.

The free and open tour of this distillery will allow you to know more about the production of rum in Marie-Galante. At the end of the visit, a tasting of homemade punches will wake your taste buds and the pretty shop will allow you to stock up for the stay.

This second distillery, more artisanal, produces a rum that has been awarded many times in agricultural competitions and is known to be one of the best in Guadeloupe. Here too, the free tasting will allow you to sharpen your taste buds.

turning to the boat to rest from this grueling day and enjoy the evening.

The opportunity for us to straighten the spi, this large ball-shaped fore sail. We are still sailing in view of the islands, and this time we will pass off Dominica, former British colony now independent (but do not confuse it with the Dominican Republic!)

We will enter the bay under sail using the Whale Pass to reach our stopover of the day: Sugarloaf. Again you will be dazzled by the frame. After lunch, free area! Swimming, kayaking, stand-up paddle, lazing...

After picking up your rental vehicle (electric bike, electric scooter or electric cart), you can climb to the fort for a tour (free or guided) of this historic site with a magnificent 360° panorama. On the way down, take a swim break at Anse Mire.

Beautiful large beach in the shade of giant palm trees.

For lunch you can choose from the many restaurants on the island. Cindy and Romain will advise you on the right addresses based on your expectations. After the meal, you will stroll the streets of this small town, ice cream in hand, before continuing your tour of the beaches.

This little cove is very pleasant, although it lacks shade. You may come across a herd of cabrits

We will be moored on a buoy near the wreck of an old ferry, which here offers shelter to many tropical fish. A simple, safe surface swim allows you to enjoy the show, but the most used can go down snorkeling between 5 and 10 meters to see the inside of the wheelhouse and the rows of seats. If you are equipped with a waterproof camera, Romain (if available), will be happy to go capture you images from the inside.

This navigation will take us along the coast of the Low Earth, with a breathtaking view of the falls of the Carbet and, perhaps, the summit of the Soufrière. This is the time to enjoy one last time this view of the land from the sea.
