Flotilla Dates: April 13-23, 2024
Discover St. Lucia and the enchanting Windward Islands of the Caribbean with Modern Sailing School & Club!
The Windward Islands offer a delightful cruising venue of lush tropical islands draped with stunning bays and white sand beaches that spill into warm turquoise waters.
Set sail with us into paradise, dig your toes into white sand, dive into coral gardens, and leave the cares of the world behind.
Reserve your cabin on one of the club catamarans with a professional captain, or skipper your own bareboat with family and friends, supported by the experts leading our flotilla.
Why sail the Windward Islands with a Modern Sailing flotilla?
The Windward Islands of the Southern Caribbean offer a wonderful blend of brisk open ocean sailing with balmy temperatures, tropical trade winds, and warm, crystal-clear water year-round. This island chain offers gorgeous beaches and an abundance of sea and shore adventures. Enjoy snorkeling off remote cays, kayaking, unique cuisine, excellent diving, and exploring while enjoying the relaxed pace of “island time.” The spring months provide ideal conditions for sailing and exploration. Delight in brisk sailing on bright, sunny days over long stretches of blue water with steady trade winds filling your sails, an occasional refreshing rain squall, and picturesque rainbows.
Joining a Modern Sailing Global Destinations flotilla is a great way to gain experience cruising on unfamiliar waters. Whether participating as crew on a captained boat or as skipper of your own bareboat, this adventure will help you prepare for your first (or next!) vacation charter or long-distance cruise while you enjoy the camaraderie, reassurance, and safety of sailing with a friendly group lead by our professional captains.
This trip has limited cabin space aboard 2 captained catamarans. Three bareboats will also be available.
