Don't miss out on a sailboat rental in the Caribbean!
Caribbean sailing season typically runs from mid-December until mid-April but between March and June, the Caribbean is also an absolute pleasure to sail. Although in general, the Caribbean is nice almost all year round, we don’t advise you to sail in hurricane season during August and September.
Sailing the Eastern Caribbean in early summer (March - June) is perfect. Not only are there fewer tourists, but the weather is calmer and tranquil with flowers blooming all around. In addition, anchoring and exploring the gorgeous bays of the islands is effortless, as the trade winds are ideal for holiday sailing.
We recommend sailing the East Coast and lagoons on a boat rental in Martinique during this time of year.
Although it’s windier and cooler, Christmas time is a very popular time for sailing the Caribbean, as well. Bookings are taken fairly early in advance (up to a year) though, so book in advance to avoid disappointment!
Similar to Christmas, Thanksgiving is also very popular for sailing holidays in the Caribbean. Whenever you choose to go, you can’t miss out on charter boats in the Caribbean.
However, there are other ways of getting to Caribbean boat rentals. For example, flying to Miami is a good option for getting to the Bahamas. You can rent a boat in Miami and sail to the Bahamas, or you can simply change at the airport and catch a local flight to your desired island.
