CARIBBEAN SEA

The Windward and Leeward islands form the eastern border of the Caribbean Sea. Stretching from Grenada to Martinique, the Windwards got their name because British ships sailing from other colonies frequently had to beat the weather to reach them. The northern islands of the archipelago are more to leeward, so the British called them the Leeward Islands. They begin in Dominica, just above Martinique, and arc gently northwest for a bit under 150 miles to include Guadeloupe, Antigua, Nevis, St. Kitts, St. Barts, Anguilla, and many others. They end near St. Martin 150 miles east of Puerto Rico. These waters are an ideal location for staging a St. Martin sailing vacation to a variety of destinations throughout the Leeward chain.

St. Martin rivals the British Virgin Islands as the most popular yacht charter destination in the Caribbean with good reason. The sailing conditions make this a destination for reasonably experienced sailors and there is with a good mix of island hopping and exciting blue water cruising that should keep everyone happy.
