St. Lucia Yacht Charters
Nestled in the heart of the Windward Islands, St Lucia is unlike any other Caribbean locale.
With influence from Africa, India, Britain, France, Spain, and the Caribbean, this popular luxury yacht charter destination offers an eclectic yet refreshing cultural mix. This variety is similarly reflected in its geography, with soaring mountains leading down through lush rainforests to pristine beaches and shimmering seas teeming with life.
The island is volcanic in origin, leading to fertile soils that help local plants and trees to flourish. Hike to the crater of the Soufriére volcano or take a trip up to the dramatic twin Pitons. And as you explore, stop in at the banana plantations, picturesque villages, and delightful harbors for a taste of the old Caribbean.
Book a luxury charter yacht in St Lucia today for an unforgettable vacation that combines small town charm with undisturbed natural bliss.
The Best St. Lucia Yachting Destinations
Castries
As the capital of St Lucia, Castries is a busy and beautiful port city featuring both stunning beaches and rich cultural history.
For a detailed snapshot of St Lucian history, visit the Saint Lucia National Museum. Here, you’ll find an incredible collection of artifacts and exhibits that tells the island’s unique story. Many historical landmarks still exist to this day, such as Fort Charlotte, an 18th century hilltop fort that offers amazing views of Castries at large.
Those of an artistic persuasion will also appreciate Derek Walcott Square, named for the St Lucian Nobel Prize winning poet and playwright. While you’re exploring, stop off at the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. As well as incredible architecture, the inside is decorated with a mural by local artist Dunstan St Omer, who also designed the island’s national flag.
Bequia
Pronounced ‘Beck-way’, Bequia is the second largest island in the Grenadines after St Vincent. The name comes from ‘Becouya’, a word of the Kalingo tribe meaning ‘Island of Clouds’ for the fluffy white clouds that drift past the mountain peaks.
Bequia is steeped in maritime history, changing between French, English, and Scottish hands since the 1700s. Over time, its main product changes from lime and cotton to sugar and eventually whaling, a practice that continues today under the watchful eye of the International Whaling Commission. The fascinating Bequia Heritage Museum tells the full story.
Nowadays, Bequia offers a sense of intimacy and community warmth that’s lost to other destinations. It’s free of mass tourism and is often overlooked on a Windward Islands yacht charter vacation. That means you can enjoy the green hills, rolling plains, quiet woods, and the Caribbean’s finest beaches in peace.
If you come early in the year, you might also catch the 4-day Bequia Music Fest, where artists of all genres come to play. At Easter there’s also the annual regatta celebrating the island’s sailing heritage. And whenever you choose to charter a yacht in Saint Lucia, this island offers plenty of opportunities for diving, fishing, and watersports.
Tobago Cays
Near St Lucia lies a collection of 5 uninhabited islands that remain undeveloped as part of the Tobago Cays Marine Park. Here, you’ll find some of the best diving and snorkeling spots in the Grenadines, complete with a thriving and unspoiled underwater ecosystem.
Under the crystal clear waters lie vibrant coral reefs, fascinating shipwrecks, and a wealth of beautiful marine life. As you emerge from the water, you’ll find gorgeous powder-soft beaches where you can grab delicious BBQ seafood at a pop-up restaurant. And once you dry off, you can head inland to enjoy a peaceful hike and look out for iguanas in the trees.
If you’ve a movie buff, you might also want to make a special stop at Petit Tabac. That’s because deserted island is where Jack Sparrow was marooned in Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl!
