If you would like access to a large database of the newest bareboat charter vessels and the world’s best cruise destinations, then look no further than SEAMAJOR.

If you’re an independent sailor who would like control of your own boat, sailing at your own pace and along your own route, then a bareboat charter could be just the thing for you. Apart from the point of embarkation and return, the choice of route will be yours, with one-way charters sometimes possible too. Meet the criteria, follow an initial briefing, and away you go!

With such freedom and independence on offer, a bareboat charter is so very tempting, giving you access to the best yachting destinations in the world. Unrestricted by any outside influence, you and your friends can enjoy your own sailing experience aboard the vessel of your choice, sailing in your own time to your chosen locations along your own routes. Swimming and snorkeling in the sea, sunbathing on deck and on the beaches of isolated bays, and finding some of those idyllic harbor and seaside villages – it’s all up for grabs on a bareboat charter.

You will, of course, need someone among your party with sufficient experience to skipper the boat. That person will need to have a skipper license or certified sailing experience – check with SEAMAJOR for details. As long as you are in that position, then it’s “aye, aye, cap’n”, and away you and your friends go! Don’t forget – as there is no crew – that you will also be responsible for cooking and cleaning, but the choice of meals and eating times will all be yours.

If you can’t provide your own skipper, then SEAMAJOR can provide you with one to go with the charter yacht you choose.

Skippered Bareboat Charters
If you or your party have no sailing qualifications to charter a yacht yourself, then you are welcome to charter a bareboat yacht with an optional professional skipper. You may also gain some sailing experience as the skippers are more than happy to teach you the basics and let you take the wheel for a while for those that are interested. It’s all part of the fun.

With our friendly team of experts in the bareboat charter business, we will ensure that you get a quote within 24 hours of your enquiry, and we also offer a BEST PRICE GUARANTEE so you will know you’re getting the best value for money boat charters can offer.

Is your choice of boat a sailing catamaran, a large motor yacht or a mono-hulled sailboat? No matter! SEAMAJOR can provide them all. Get in touch now and begin arranging your perfect vacation.

If you prefer a more luxurious cruise with a captain, hostess and crew to wine and dine you, then visit Royalty Yachts which can offer you a wide range of fully crewed luxury motor yachts, catamarans and sailing yachts.

CARIBBEAN - Grenadines Windward Islands

Luxury charter yachts ply from island to island in the Grenadines, pampering their yacht charter guests while they sail between quiet villages on unspoiled islands to countless secluded beaches. Just south of St. Vincent, charter yachts can visit enchanting Bequia, the largest island of the Grenadines. A must stop within easy cruising distance for sailing yacht or motor yacht charters is the spectacular anchorage area in the Tobago Cays.

Winds are higher and more constant in the Windward Islands than in other areas of the Caribbean, making this area more favored for sailing yacht charters than motor yacht charters.

Popular Windward Islands:

St.Vincent--Full of rugged natural beauty, black volcanic sand beaches with excellent diving, good access by plane to start or finish your yacht charter

Bequia--Accessible only by boat, native craftsmen handcraft colorful small working boats as well as much smaller ships' models

Mustique--Hideaway for the rich and famous.

Tobago Cays--Spectacular cluster of uninhabited cays with excellent diving. Many secure anchorages lie within its colorful reefs with nothing but ocean between you and Africa!

Grenada--Southern end of the Windward Islands. Its airport provides easy USA and international access.

Windward Islands

Located on the southern end of the Caribbean chain, the Windward Islands are the Caribbean's best-kept yacht charter secret. These lush and richly tropical volcanic islands are a little peace of France, floating amongst the palm lined sandy beaches and misty rain forests of the Caribbean. The Windward Islands yacht charter area runs from Dominica in the north, to Grenada in the south. The Windward Islands also include the islands of Martinique, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines and Barbados.

This jewel area of the Caribbean hosts yacht charters year-round, with a rainy season from July through October. From its distinctive cuisine to its language, The Windward Islands exude the ambiance of Paris with the warmth, friendliness and spice of the West Indies.

As with most of the Caribbean, The Windward Islands yacht charter season runs from November through July. The primary high season is from mid-December to March, when the winter escapees from North America and Europe arrive in their greatest numbers. The hurricane season is from late July to early October. Although hurricanes are generally rare, this is the least expensive time for Windward Island yacht charters and there are some really good deals available. However, as well as running the risk of storms, this time of year also tends to have lighter (or non-existent) winds.

Of volcanic origin, the islands are generally rugged, mountainous, and well forested, and they have many streams and lakes. With an equable climate, ample rainfall, and rich soil, they produce a variety of tropical agricultural crops for export, including bananas, spices, limes, and cacao. The deep and sheltered harbors encourage considerable inter-island commerce. Fort-de-France, on Martinique, and Castries, on Saint Lucia, are the islands' chief cities. The islands are largely inhabited by descendants of Africans, who were brought as slaves during the colonial period. The culture varies from island to island, but the French influence is particularly strong.

Allow us to custom tailor your luxury, crewed Windward Islands yacht charter. Our knowledge of Caribbean charter yachts, crews, destinations and cruising itineraries is unmatched! We personally inspect each yacht, meet the captains, sample the chefs' cuisine and evaluate the service offered by each yacht crew.
