Luxury Caribbean Yacht Charter Destinations
Winter is settling over the Northern Hemisphere: the sweaters and blankets return, the crisp rosé of Provence yields to full-bodied reds, and the streets prepare to dress in festive snow. Charming, yes—but what if you could escape the chill and extend the golden days of summer? What if your tan could linger a little longer, and your swimsuit remained a daily essential rather than a memory tucked away? For those who seek more than just a getaway, the answer is simple: pack your bags and embark on a private yacht journey through the Caribbean—a sanctuary of turquoise waters, endless horizons, and unforgettable moments tailored just for you.
A Caribbean yacht charter is defined by diversity, where each destination offers something different. The Leewards combine glamour and history, the Exumas deliver pure seclusion and natural wonder, the Virgin Islands provide ease and variety, and Jamaica blends adventure with culture. Together, they form a region where every guest can find their perfect pace, whether that means fine dining, untouched beaches, lively nightlife, or cultural discovery.
At Moncada, we create bespoke Caribbean yacht charter itineraries for those who want to experience the region’s unmatched variety of islands, cultures, natural beauty, and relaxed elegance. Unlike the Mediterranean, which dazzles with historic ports and cosmopolitan dining, a Caribbean yacht charter is defined by its vibrant island cultures, year-round warm seas, and the freedom to explore destinations that range from glamorous harbours to untouched natural hideaways. Here, every island feels like a new world: some are captivating and chic, while others are wild and untouched.
Catamarans are a popular choice for a luxury yacht charter in the Caribbean, thanks to their stability, spacious decks, and shallow drafts that allow guests to explore hidden coves and anchor close to shore. With destinations as varied as the French-influenced Leeward Islands, the pristine cays of the Exumas, the lively Virgin Islands, and the culturally rich Jamaica, the Caribbean offers a depth of choice that no other charter region can match.
Leeward Islands Yacht Charter
A Leeward Islands yacht charter brings together French sophistication, Dutch heritage, and pure Caribbean charm. St Barts is the crown jewel of the region, a glamorous hotspot where designer boutiques and Michelin-starred restaurants line the waterfront. Contrast this with Antigua, famous for its 365 beaches, colonial harbours, and one of the most celebrated regattas in the world. Anguilla offers a different pace altogether, with tranquil bays and long stretches of powder-white sand, while St Kitts and Nevis add another dimension with lush volcanic peaks, colonial towns, and a more authentic, less-travelled atmosphere.
Exumas Yacht Charter
If there is one place that embodies the meaning of a private escape, it is the Exumas. A yacht charter in the Exumas takes you through a chain of 365 islands and cays, each with its own picturesque beauty. The waters here are famously transparent, with shifting shades of blue that make snorkelling, diving, and paddleboarding a daily delight.
Nowhere else in the Caribbean will you find experiences like swimming with the pigs at Big Major Cay, snorkelling inside a James Bond filming set, Thunderball Grotto, or walking along endless sandbars that appear at low tide. The Exumas are about seclusion, nature, and simplicity. Catamarans are especially suited to this region, slipping into shallow lagoons and secluded anchorages that remain inaccessible to larger yachts.
Virgin Islands Yacht Charter
A Virgin Islands yacht charter offers one of the most versatile and guest-friendly experiences in the Caribbean. With short sailing distances between islands, calm seas, and consistent trade winds, this destination is ideal for first-time charterers and seasoned adventurers alike. The British Virgin Islands shine with their natural landmarks: the Baths on Virgin Gorda with giant granite boulders and crystal pools, or the coral reefs of Anegada, perfect for diving. Meanwhile, Jost Van Dyke offers lively beach bars and barefoot revelry, while St. Thomas and St. John in the US Virgin Islands balance bustling marinas, luxury shopping, and lush national parks.
What makes the Virgin Islands distinct is the balance between accessibility and variety. You can spend one day exploring natural wonders, enjoy a lively beach party the next, and unwind in a tranquil bay the following. Your choices are endless.
Other exotic Caribbean locations such as Jamaica, the Bahamas, Miami and Cuba are available for charter on a tailor-made basis.
