St Vincent 2024

Proposed Itinerary (Subject to change)

Day 1 Blue Lagoon – Mustique

After a comprehensive chart and yacht briefing at the Horizon Yacht Charter base in Blue Lagoon

Marina on the south west coast of St. Vincent, set sail on your St Vincent sailing itinerary for a brief

2 hour passage to Mustique, your first overnight stop. Before leaving the base provision at the IGA

supermarket or take advantage of our full provisioning service and relax in the knowledge that

everything you need is stowed on board for you before you depart.

At Mustique pick up a mooring in Britannia Bay, before heading ashore for cocktails at Basil’s Bar,

or catch a taxi up the hill to the Firefly Restaurant for sundowners and a glorious dinner.

Day 2 Mustique – Tobago Cays

After breakfast set sail for the beautiful Tobago Cays, one of the World’s most breathtaking

anchorages. The anchorage is protected by an enormous horseshoe reef which also provides

amazing snorkeling. You can swim with the turtles that feed around the five islands that make up

the Cays, or explore ashore with the nearly tame iguanas and tortoises. In the evening you can

arrange a wonderful lobster or fish beach BBQ with one of the local guides, or light up the BBQ

yourself on board and dine under the stars.

Day 3 Tobago Cays

Spend the day snorkeling and exploring the Cays – since the area is protected the wealth of sea life

is extraordinary. Just off the little island of Baradel is an area cordoned off for turtles to feed, and

it’s an incredible experience to get close and swim with these remarkable animals. Explore the

islands ashore and climb to their summits for the stunning views and watch the almost tame

iguanas and land tortoises lumbering around.

Day 4 Tobago Cays – Petit St Vincent

Leaving the Cays by the northern entrance enjoy an exhilarating reach past Mayreau and Union

before reaching the sheltered waters of Petit St Vincent. Explore the tiny sand islet of Mopion with

a single coconut thatch sun shelter before heading over to the PSV anchorage overnight. Dine

exclusively at the resort or arrange a water taxi for excellent local food at Palm Beach Restaurant

on Petite Martinique. Top off with water and fuel if required on Petite Martinique in the morning.

Day 5 Petit St Vincent – Chatham Bay

Sail downwind for an hour to Chatham Bay, Union Island. This large anchorage has a sweeping

beach under high hills. There is excellent snorkeling along the north side of the bay and some great

walking ashore. For dinner head for Seckie and Vanessa’s restaurant on the beach, in season this

frequently ends up as a dancing party in the sand.

Day 6 Chatham Bay – Mayreau

A short sail to Mayreau in the morning, dropping anchor in Salt Whistle Bay, a palm fringed

semi-circle of white sand. There’s some good walking here, but most worthwhile is the short hike

to the top of the hill and the breathtaking view from the Catholic Church. For dinner try Dennis’s

Hideaway in the village, a short climb up the hill from Saline Bay.

Day 7 Mayreau – Bequia

Set out for a four hour romping sail to Bequia, arriving in time for lunch before setting off to explore

the island. This island is one of the most laid back and attractive islands of the whole Caribbean –

absolutely perfect for your last night. Restaurants and bars abound, choose between local fare and

fine dining according to your taste and budget. Shore side activities include a guided tour of the

island including a visit to the Turtle Sanctuary. For the more active there are numerous hiking trails

around Bequia with superb views from the hill tops.

Day 8 Bequia – Blue Lagoon
