Escape the winter on this hands-on sailing adventure through the Windward Islands, timed perfectly for Christmas and New Year. We set sail from Grenada into the warmth of the Caribbean trade winds, island-hopping through the Grenadines as the year turns Ask any seasoned cruiser—the passage from Grenada to Martinique is one of the Caribbean’s most loved routes. Why? It’s a perfect blend of trade winds, short hops, and stunning anchorages. Christmas Day sees us anchored off a quiet beach, swimming before breakfast, then Christmas dinner is served back on board under a clear sky. As New Year’s Eve arrives, we drop anchor near one of the islands’ lively beach bars, where locals and sailors gather to welcome the new year with music, dancing and the warm Caribbean night all around. Expect warm days, crystal-clear waters, island culture, and the rare magic of celebrating the Christmas barefoot, afloat, and far from winter. This is real sailing, real discovery, and an amazing experience you’ll never forget.
Christmas in the Caribbean the way sailors dream about it. Trade-wind sailing through the Grenadines, swimming on Christmas morning, and welcoming the New Year at anchor somewhere warm, lively and wonderfully far from winter.

Saga is not a “charter boat” - it’s a sail training yacht, not a luxury cruise - and the adventure sailing & Sail training trips we do are closer in spirit to trekking Kilimanjaro than they are to a typical summer cruise in the Mediterranean Sea. On most offshore passages, there will also be a 1st mate onboard in addition to the skipper, to safely sail the boat, but we expect crew on all adventure to, with guidance from the skipper, to take care of themselves for the most part when it comes to eating, sleeping & living on the boat.
