Yacht charter in Guadeloupe

01 · Overview

Yacht charter in Guadeloupe

Guadeloupe is part of France, with French food, the euro and a big, mountainous island shaped like a butterfly. The small islands to the south are among the prettiest in the Caribbean. Every boat on our desk here leaves from one marina at Pointe-à-Pitre, and almost all are catamarans.

02 · The sailing grounds

The sailing grounds

From Marina Bas-du-Fort, the first sail is often south to Les Saintes, a group of small islands with a hilltop fort and a lively village. Marie-Galante is flat and quiet, with long beaches. Dominica lies further south for crews ready for open-water passages, and Antigua is a longer sail north.

05 · Ways to charter

Ways to charter

Boats in Guadeloupe offer these kinds of charter (a boat can offer more than one):

Bareboat (18 boats): you skipper the boat yourself. The skipper needs a licence the operator accepts, and usually a VHF radio certificate.

Crewed (3 boats): a skipper and crew come with the boat, often with a cook or host.

Skippered (1 boat): a professional skipper sails the boat with you, and you crew as much or as little as you like.
