Where to go for a 7-day yacht charter

Charter grounds whose season suits these dates. Ordered by how well the window fits, not by how many yachts we hold there.

Why these charter grounds suit the dates

Anguilla

Powder-white sands and glassy leeward anchorages – Anguilla pairs Caribbean trade-wind sailing with some of the region's finest beach dining.

Antigua and Barbuda

A bay for every day of the year and the Caribbean's premier regatta calendar – Antigua Sailing Week closes the season each spring.

Aruba

South of the hurricane belt with near-constant trade winds, Aruba is one of the Caribbean's rare true year-round charter grounds.

Bahamas

Winter is prime time – the Exumas' sandbars and swimming pigs in settled trade-wind weather. Hurricane season (June–November) sits outside the charter calendar.

Bahrain

The Gulf's winter window pairs F1 weekend glamour with pearl-diving heritage and calm island-dotted shallows.

Barbados

The easternmost of the Windwards greets the Atlantic head-on – surf-washed east coasts, calm platinum west-coast anchorages and rum heritage ashore.
