Private Half-Day Sailing Charter: Snorkel & Secluded Coves

Set sail on a private crewed yacht from St. John's harbour, anchoring at pristine uninhabited coves and top snorkel reefs inaccessible by land. This is the Caribbean as it was meant to be experienced — from the water, on your own terms.

What to expect

Step aboard a beautifully maintained sailing yacht and feel the trade winds fill the sails as Antigua's coastline unfolds ahead of you. Your captain navigates to secluded anchorages — think glassy turquoise lagoons sheltered by uninhabited headlands — where snorkel gear, paddleboards, and a well-stocked cooler of chilled drinks await. The crew prepares a fresh antipasto and chilled Champagne lunch at anchor, with the kind of effortless service you'd expect at a five-star resort. This is the definitive Antiguan experience: warm trade winds, spectacular coral, and total, blissful privacy.

Good to know
