Top 3 Beaches To Visit On A Luxury Yacht Charter Vacation
Top 3 Beaches To Visit On A Luxury Yacht Charter Vacation
Every year, numerous travel magazines and websites put together lists of the top 10 beaches in the world. Our charter department decided to chime in on the never-ending debate about the best beaches, but we wanted to add a little twist.
Since the vast majority of yachting vacations,
bareboat yacht charters, crewed catamaran charters, etc. take place in the Caribbean, we decided to focus on the very best beaches found in the balmyCaribbean– sandy destinations that you can reach via boat.
Of course, this will probably set off a series of text messages and emails, debating the merits of the Caribbean beaches, as compared to the South Pacific and elsewhere. Good – that's the way we like it!!! Let us here from you if we've missed a great beach in the Caribbean…or elsewhere.
Our top three beaches:
SIP SIP BEACH (Harbour Island, Eleuthera, Bahamas) – the sand is pink, not white. Very few residents and even fewer tourists. No big buildings or hotels to block your views. Amazing. On top of that, where else can you sit on a beach towel and have wild horses meander by???
FLAMENCO BEACH(Culebra, Spanish Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico) – so many boaters plan Virgin Islands yacht charters yet never go beyond the confines of the USVI and the BVI. The nearby Spanish Virgin Islands are a hidden gem with few visitors on weekdays (but boaters from the mainland of Puerto Rico do invade on the weekends).. In a nearly waveless, sheltered cove, Flamenco Beach is long, wide, and surrounded by greenery. Fish swim right up to the edge of the water, which is waist deep for quite a stretch and has at least 20 yards of crystal clear visibility underwater.
JAMESBY BEACH (Jamesby Island, Tobago Cays, Grenadines) – the Tobago Cays are an archipelago of five tiny, uninhabited islands. Protected by a horseshoe reef, the eponymous-named beach is small but visually breathtaking. By the way, there is only one way to get there – by boat… 😉
