Leeward Islands Yachting Season: mid-November through May

December through May is considered high season in the Leeward Islands, with Christmas and New Year being the most popular time for yacht charters. Most yachts charge a premium for Holiday charters because of high demand.

Many yachts relocate to other charter areas after May (from the Bahamas to New England to the Mediterranean) so the selection of charter yachts is limited in the summer months.

Natural Beauty of the Leeward Islands

From the coastal beaches of Anguilla and St. Bart’s to the volcanoes of St. Kitts, the Leeward Islands feature lush tropical landscape and miles of sandy beaches. Lucky charter guests can explore this tropical paradise up close and personal.

Varied Cultural History

Though different in nature, the Leeward Islands all share a reverence for other cultures – especially considering their diverse origins. Take St. Maarten, for example, which houses two cultures in one; one half of the island is French, while the other is Dutch.

Exceptional Diving

With its vibrant corals and tropical fish, the Caribbean Sea is a prime spot for water sports enthusiasts; especially diving and snorkeling. With its translucent blue hues and mild temperatures, this revered body of water is the perfect place to spot the most surreal sea life – even those swimming miles and miles away.

Luxury Resorts and Spas

While some of the islands are simple in nature, others were seemingly designed to cater to the rich and famous.  While on your Leeward Islands yacht charter, head to St. Bart’s crystal coast for some of the world’s most desired haunts: like the Eden Roc, Nikki Beach and more.

Unspoiled Cruising

Floating seemingly off the radar in the Caribbean Sea, the Leeward Islands offer perfect breezes for smooth cruising among islands.
