Why this country

Sailing in Grenada

Grenada is the southern end of the Lesser Antilles and the cheapest way into a Caribbean week in our catalogue — rates start around €2,100, against roughly €3,800 in the British Virgin Islands. It is also the base that gives you the most islands for the least paperwork, because Carriacou and Petite Martinique are Grenadian territory. The southern half of the Grenadines is therefore domestic water: you clear in once at Port Louis or the Grenada Yacht Club and then have 40 miles of islands in front of you with no further formalities.

The island's other reputation needs handling carefully. Grenada is usually described as lying below the hurricane belt, and in insurance terms there is something to that: underwriters commonly draw their named-storm line at 12°40'N, and the south coast of Grenada sits near 12°00'N, about 40 nautical miles below it. That is why the bays along the south — Prickly Bay, Mount Hartman, Clarkes Court — fill with boats laid up for the summer.

But it is a statistical statement, not a guarantee, and 2024 made that plain. On 1 July that year Hurricane Beryl crossed Carriacou as a Category 4 storm with sustained winds around 150 mph; between 95 and 100 per cent of homes on Carriacou and Petite Martinique were damaged or destroyed, along with the airport and the marinas. Treat the latitude as lower risk, not immunity, and read your charter contract's storm clauses for what they actually say.

The sailing itself is the easiest kind of Caribbean week: 21 boats averaging 13.9 metres, most of them catamarans, an average build year of 2023, and short hops north along a chain where the next island is almost always in sight.

On the water

Sailing conditions in Grenada

Prevailing wind
Easterly trades, 15–25 kn

Steadiest December to May. Going north up the Grenadines is a beam or close reach; coming back is the easy leg.

Where the fleet is
Port Louis and Grenada Yacht Club

14 boats at Port Louis in St George's lagoon and 7 at the Grenada Yacht Club next door. Both are in the capital, so clearance and provisioning are in one place.

Entry price
From about €2,100 a week

The lowest Caribbean entry point in our catalogue. For comparison, the British Virgin Islands start near €3,800.

Hurricane exposure
Lower, not absent

Insurers typically draw the named-storm line at 12°40'N; southern Grenada is about 40 nm below it. Hurricane Beryl still crossed Carriacou as a Category 4 in July 2024.

Changeover day
Saturday

All 21 boats hand over on a Saturday.

Worth the detour

Where to drop anchor in Grenada

  • 1

    Tyrrel Bay, Carriacou

    A wide, well-held anchorage and the natural first stop north. Carriacou is Grenadian, so there is no clearance between here and the mainland — a real convenience in this part of the Caribbean.

  • 2

    Sandy Island, Carriacou

    A sandbar with a line of palms just off Tyrrel Bay, inside a marine protected area with moorings. Day stop rather than an overnight in anything but settled weather.

  • 3

    Petite Martinique

    A single small island with one village and a long boatbuilding tradition. Also Grenadian, and the last domestic anchorage before Saint Vincent's waters begin.

  • 4

    The south coast bays

    Prickly Bay, Mount Hartman, Hog Island and Clarkes Court form a run of deep, protected inlets along the island's southern edge. This is where boats sit out the summer and it makes an easy first or last night.

  • 5

    St George's and the Carenage

    The capital's horseshoe harbour under a Georgian waterfront, with the base marinas at the lagoon end. One of the better-looking harbours in the islands.

  • 6

    Underwater Sculpture Park, Moliniere

    Just north of St George's: submerged figures on a shallow reef in a marine protected area. Moorings only, and a snorkelling stop rather than a night.

  • 7

    Grand Anse

    A two-mile beach immediately south of the capital. Anchorable in settled conditions and close enough to base for the last afternoon.

  • 8

    Northward into the Grenadines

    Union Island, Mayreau and the Tobago Cays are a day beyond Petite Martinique — but they are Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, so the chain's famous reef anchorage means clearing into another country.

Suggested routes

Where a week in Grenada could take you

Grenada and Carriacou

7 days

All inside one country, so no clearance after handover. Beam reach north, easy run back, and the next island nearly always in sight.

  1. 1

    St George's

    Saturday handover at Port Louis; move round to the south coast rather than leaving late.

  2. 2

    Prickly Bay or Hog Island

    Settle in on the protected south coast.

  3. 3

    Tyrrel Bay, Carriacou

    The main passage of the week, roughly 30 nm north.

  4. 4

    Sandy Island and Petite Martinique

    Day stop on the sandbar, then on to the far point.

  5. 5

    Back to Carriacou — Anse La Roche or Tyrrel Bay

    Short hop; the quieter north-west corner.

  6. 6

    Dragon Bay / Moliniere

    The run south, with the sculpture park moorings before the capital.

  7. 7

    St George's

    Short leg back for handover.

North into the Grenadines

7 days

Adds the Tobago Cays and one border crossing. Demanding on time — this is a passage-led week rather than an anchorage-led one.

  1. 1

    St George's

    Handover; clear out for an early start.

  2. 2

    Tyrrel Bay, Carriacou

    Clear out of Grenada here before heading north.

  3. 3

    Clifton, Union Island

    Clear into Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.

  4. 4

    Tobago Cays

    The horseshoe reef anchorage; park fees collected on the water.

  5. 5

    Mayreau — Salt Whistle Bay

    Short hop; clear out at Clifton on the way back south.

  6. 6

    Tyrrel Bay

    Back into Grenadian waters and clear in.

  7. 7

    St George's

    The long leg home — leave early.

Before you book

Local rules and paperwork in Grenada

Skipper qualification
No formal licence; a sailing resume is required. The Eastern Caribbean pattern. Operators want your recent experience in writing — boat sizes, types and waters — rather than a certificate number.
Hurricane season and the latitude
June – November; lower risk, not no risk. Insurers commonly use 12°40'N as the named-storm boundary and southern Grenada lies about 40 nm south of it. Hurricane Beryl crossed Carriacou as a Category 4 on 1 July 2024 and damaged or destroyed 95–100% of homes there. Read the storm clauses in the charter contract.
One country, many islands
Carriacou and Petite Martinique need no clearance. The southern Grenadines are Grenadian territory, so you clear in once at St George's. Going on to Union Island or the Tobago Cays means clearing out and into Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
Marine protected areas
Moorings and fees at Sandy Island and Moliniere. Both are managed areas with buoys rather than free anchoring, and fees are collected locally. Treat the buoys as mandatory where they exist.
Skippered option
Available on a few boats. Three of the 21 boats are skippered only. If your resume is thin, a skipper for the first days is usually offered rather than the charter being refused.

Checked October 2026. Rules change — confirm the detail that matters for your trip when you book.

Share of the Grenada fleet that already holds at least one reservation, for each of the next twelve months. Taken from the operators' own calendars and refreshed daily — a boat with one week booked can still be chartered in the others.

Months further out look emptier simply because they are further away — most charters are booked a few months ahead, not a year.
