Luxury Yacht Charter Grenada

There are lots of experiences that charterers can enjoy on a Caribbean yacht charter in Grenada, with the top experiences including relaxing on white sand beaches, hiking lush rainforests, and exploring historic plantations.

The main island of Grenada is just 34 kilometres (21 miles) long by 19 kilometres (12 miles) wide but has plenty of activities to keep even the most active visitors entertained. The capital of St George is a small, hilly port town with a central marina in its natural lagoon catering to the world’s finest superyachts.

Grenada is renowned for its beautiful white sand beaches. Take in Grand Anse, Morn Rouge and Pink Gin or head to the north of the island to enjoy a less developed side to Grenada, where the Levera National Park is home to a sea turtle nesting area.

Take a hike through Grenada island’s rainforests to a remote waterfall and swimming hole; the Seven Sisters waterfalls are popular. There are some excellent trails through the Grand Étang National Park and Forest Reserve, and the most energetic of your group can wake early and head up to the summit of Mount St Catherine on a challenging four-hour hike for superb views across the island with a private guide.

Thanks to Grenada’s agricultural past, there are a number of historical and active plantations to visit on a luxury yacht charter in Grenada. The Belmont Estate Plantation should be on your to-do list, as one of the West Indies’ best-established agri-tourism experiences just an hour’s drive from St George in St Patrick. Take the whole family for a fascinating tour of the cocoa, chocolate and spice production where the growing, harvesting and processing of these exotic ingredients comes to life. To learn more about Grenada’s history, make time for a visit to the National Museum in St George or Carriacou Museum.

Diving and snorkelling are popular activities for anyone looking to visit Grenada on a superyacht. There are some particularly outstanding shallow coral reefs off Petite Martinique and Carriacou, which is also known as the “Land of Reefs”. The world’s first underwater sculpture park can be found beneath Moliniere Bay off the west coast of Grenada island, providing a fascinating scuba diving experience. Created by British artist Jason de Caires Taylor, there are 65 sculptures across 800 square metres of seabed, offering both an artistic and conservational purpose, as reef species attach to the concrete structures to create a new ecosystem.

Grenada is also known for its excellent deep-sea fishing, with many avid anglers making the trip to the southern Caribbean nation specifically to enjoy the sport.

There are so many wonderful places you can visit on a luxury yacht charter in Grenada, including the lesser-known islands of Carriacou and Pettite Martinique. Thanks to Grenada’s diminutive size, it is possible to drive around the whole island in a day in order to explore the various activities and sights on offer. Although Grenada has traditionally been less developed than other parts of the Windward Islands, the capital of St George to the south-west of the island is growing in terms of facilities available for visiting yacht guests and a number of luxury resorts are springing up across the island.

Both Carriacou and Petite Martinique are less developed than Grenada island, with many locals making their livelihoods from building boats and fishing rather than through tourism.

The major yachting ports in Grenada including Port Louis Marina & Maritime Village, Secret Harbour, and Prickly Bay Marina.

Port Louis Marina & Maritime Village is located in the natural lagoon of St George, with dockage for yachts up to 90 metres and modern facilities and amenities as well as a number of nearby service providers and restaurants. There are plans for the development of the capital around the port to cater to a well-heeled set with the aim of setting it among the ranks of Portofino and St Tropez.

Secret Harbour to the south of Grenada island is a deep-draft marina that has capacity for superyachts up to 60 metres (200 feet) with a draft of six metres (20 feet). Prickly Bay Marina, also on the south coast of Grenada, is able to dock up to two superyachts, with a deep draft suitable for sailing yachts.

When cruising in other parts of Grenada, superyachts tend to spend most of their time at anchor as there are few marinas capable of providing berths for large vessels.
