Superyacht Charter in the Leeward Islands
Experience the Unmistakable Charm of the Leeward Islands
The beauty of the Leeward Islands lies in how quickly the scene can change. Anguilla is wonderfully easy going, while St Barths has a sophisticated energy. St Martin brings French and Dutch influences together and Antigua has sailing firmly at its heart. Barbuda feels more laid back again, with its pink sand coastline and a sense of space that feels quite different from its neighbours. It is this contrast between the islands that gives the Leewards much of their appeal.
With short cruises between the islands, there is more time to make the most of each place along the way. The Leeward Islands are great for an active charter or a family escape, with days shaped around everyone on board. Spend the morning snorkelling the reefs or exploring the coastline by paddleboard, then head ashore for a long lunch at one of the Caribbeanâs best restaurants.
Thank you to Yomira for organising such a great vacation for me and my family! The charter was just wonderful, everything worked really well, there are no words to describe the crews professionalism and extreme level of care.

Leeward Islands
Barefoot Beach Days in Anguilla
Anguilla has a wonderfully easy pace, with white sand beaches and clear water around much of its coast. Spend the morning snorkelling the reefs before taking the tender across to Sandy Island, a tiny cay just offshore where lunch is served steps from the water. Back on the main island, quiet coves make it easy to find somewhere to anchor for the afternoon and simply stay a little longer.
Two Cultures Meet in St Martin
St Martin has a distinctive character shaped by its French and Dutch heritage. Anchor at Anse Marcel, where the sheltered bay is made for a quiet morning on the water, then head to Grand Case for dinner as the restaurants along the waterfront. With Anguilla and St Barths close by, it is also a natural place to begin or end a charter through the Leewards.
From Beach Days to Nights in St Barths
St Barths has a style all of its own, with days moving easily between the water and life ashore. Mornings can be spent at anchor before heading to Gyp Sea or Shellona for lunch, then into Gustavia as evening approaches. New Yearâs Eve is one of the most anticipated nights of the St Barths season, when the harbour fills with yachts and fireworks light up the night sky, making it an unforgettable place to welcome in the New Year.
Discover the Untouched Side of Barbuda
Barbuda is one of those places that feels like a real discovery, best known for its famous pink sand and miles of open coastline. Arrive by yacht and spend the morning in the water before heading ashore to Princess Diana Beach for a long lunch at Nobu Barbuda. Much of the island remains unspoilt, which is exactly what makes time here feel so special.
Sailing Through Antiguaâs Historic Harbours
Sailing has shaped Antigua for centuries and nowhere is that more apparent than English Harbour. Step ashore to explore Nelsonâs Dockyard, where restored historic buildings overlook a harbour still filled with yachts today. Away from the bustle, Antiguaâs coastline is dotted with sheltered bays and beaches that are easily reached from the water. For something extra special, combine your superyacht charter with a stay at Jumby Bay Island, one of the Caribbeanâs most exclusive private island retreats.
Discover the Magic of the Leeward Islands
Knowing the Leeward Islands well means understanding where to spend your time. Start the day with a swim in the sheltered waters of Anse Marcel, where the calm bay is ideal for paddleboarding. In St Barths, come ashore for lunch at Gyp Sea before making your way to Gustavia as the island comes to life in the evening. Barbuda offers something completely different with its long pink sand beaches and wonderfully undeveloped coastline, while Anguilla is best enjoyed from the water, dropping anchor off quiet coves and heading out to snorkel the reefs. Yomira brings together the places we know best, both on the water and ashore to create a charter that feels personal to you.
