The Majestic Barbuda Island
Barbuda, located just north of Antigua in the Caribbean, is an incredibly tranquil destination with stunning beaches and friendly locals. After a hurricane nearly destroyed it five years ago, the island has undergone a beautiful reconstruction. You’ll find the famously named Princess Diana Beach, known for its powdery white sand and the calm waters are excellent for snorkelling enthusiasts. Afterwards, why not enjoy a cool drink at the charming Shaka-A-Kai beach bar?
This largely uninhabited island provides a remarkable sense of isolation, perfect for those seeking tranquillity. Barbuda is quaint and small but best explored by car, motorcycle, or bicycle.
The Pink Sand Beach, an expansive stretch of pristine pink shell sand, stretches for miles and offers unparalleled solitude for those sunny tranquil walks.
Barbuda's unique charm and the warmth of its people will leave a lasting impression on all discerning travellers.
An Island Frozen in Time: Montserrat
The eruption of Soufriere Hills Volcano once buried Montserrat’s capital, Plymouth, under 60 feet of ash and rock in 1997. The disaster reshaped the island, adding five square miles, creating new beaches, and fostering a thriving natural habitat, closely monitored by the Montserrat Volcano Observatory.
Montserrat is located approximately at the centre of the Caribbean island chain, about 40 miles southwest of Antigua and 50 miles northwest of the Guadeloupe Islands. Montserrat, like other Caribbean islands, has a wetter season in the summer and a drier season in the winter.
The island is unique with mesmerising black sand beaches, such as Woodlands, Isle’s Bay, and Barton Bay. The exception is the beautiful Rendezvous Bay Beach, Montserrat’s only white sand beach. This may not be a large island, but it’s a delight for any beachgoer’s search for the exotic. Scuba diving and snorkelling are popular activities since the island is surrounded by turquoise water teeming with new coral growth and sea life.
Thanks to the island’s vibrant and unique heritage, several annual events and festivals are worth organising your charter around, including St. Patrick’s Day, which celebrates the island’s Irish Catholic heritage going as far back as the 1600s.
Magical Underwater Worlds: Anegada island
Anegada is a highlight for many when cruising by yacht. The turquoise waters in this part of the British Virgin Islands are a haven for snorkelling and scuba diving.
Swimming the crystal clear water of Loblolly Bay is a must-do activity, with its teeming coral heads and thousands of fish between the beach and Horseshoe Reef, one of the largest barrier reefs in the Caribbean. Anegada’s reputation for its abundance of lobster makes it an essential local delicacy to try out.
Anegada is a coral and limestone island, distinct from its volcanic neighbours to the south. It is 11 miles long and surrounded by pristine, powdery sand beaches, making it a dream destination for those seeking a tranquil getaway. The Horseshoe Reef offers excellent snorkelling and diving opportunities, while a dinner of freshly caught, wood-grilled lobster under the stars is one of the Caribbean’s ultimate delights.
The beaches of Anegada are among the finest in the British Virgin Islands, perfect for long walks and exploration. Anegada also features three salt ponds and is home to Caribbean Flamingos, which were reintroduced back into the island’s wild habitat in the 1990s. The island has plenty of other wildlife from iguanas to herons.
Enjoy the advantage of Cow Wreck Beach’s remote location, which means the beach is seldom crowded. This beach features a lively bar-restaurant offering local delicacies, along with relaxing shaded chaise lounges.
One other Anegada Beach Club on Bones Bay offers a restaurant and bar, with beachfront palapas for relaxing. The club’s swimming pool and lounges are available to restaurant patrons.
Cow Wreck Beach and Bones Bay are both ideal for swimming, kite surfing and snorkelling, while nearby Loblolly Beach is perfect for beach-entry snorkelling.
Unspoiled and enchanting: Saba Island
Despite being the smallest island in the Caribbean, the diving experiences here are unsurpassed. Saba earns its nickname “The Unspoiled Queen of The Caribbean” because it brings untouched fairy-tale charm, providing a unique experience unlike any other in the Caribbean. Saba’s beauty is preserved thanks to its eco-friendly, small-scale tourism. It’s little wonder why it is a prime destination for undisturbed hiking and diving.
The island's only road, aptly named "The Road," clings precariously to the steep slopes over lush mountainous terrain, connecting Saba’s four towns through a network of steep, narrow pathways. Roads are the primary means of moving around the 8-square-mile island, and most visitors rely on the efficient taxi service.
The island's picturesque beauty is enhanced with sublime vistas of neighbouring islands such as St. Maarten, St. Barthélemy, St. Eustatius, and St. Kitts.
Houses across Saba are built in the traditional West Indian style architecture, featuring a matching colour scheme that only adds to the island’s charm.
Since Saba Island does not have sandy beaches, meaning the principal activities are hiking and diving. Lush hiking trails cover varied terrains ranging from steep, dense cloud forests to exposed forested lava domes with stunning sea views. The island’s 15 hiking trails offer diverse experiences, with everything from encounters with wild goats to stumbling upon beautiful clear tide pools.
Saba’s isolation ensures that it remains a haven for nature lovers and adventure seekers. The island’s residents warmly welcome visitors, and life on Saba feels simple, unhurried, and abundant. Whether you're trekking through its unique landscapes or diving into its clear waters, Saba offers an unforgettable Caribbean experience.
Spectacular Beaches: Les Saintes
The Îles des Saintes, often referred to as Les Saintes, is a picturesque volcanic archipelago of the Guadeloupe in the Caribbean. Radiating the same laid-back atmosphere of this region, enjoy the island’s exquisite white sand beaches and equally stunning panoramic views.
Les Saintes has two white sand beaches of unrivalled beauty, namely: Pain de Sucre Beach and Plage de Pompierre. The latter, Plage de Pompierre, is more isolated and rarely crowded, while Pain de Sucre Beach is an ideal spot for snorkelling. When visiting Plage de Pompierre beach, giant coconut trees and soft white sands immediately surround you. Enjoy swimming in crystal blue waters and epic ocean views from all these beaches.
