Where to sail in Guadeloupe?

Guadeloupe offers a diversity of landscapes as beautiful as they are breathtaking. The Basse-Terre, the mountainous part of the island is invaded by a tropical forest and has many rivers and waterfalls. In Guadeloupe, it is preferable to rent a boat with a captain rather than explore on your own. Also volcanic in character, Basse-Terre has a still active 1,467-metre-high volcano (La Soufrière) which offers this land beautiful black and red sand beaches, just like the neighbouring volcanic islands (St Lucia, Dominica and Martinique). On board your boat, you will have access to an exceptional panorama of this part of the island. However, beware of the venturi effects (wind corridors) which can create real wind accelerations in certain places between the islands.

La Grande-Terre brings together the major resorts of Guadeloupe because it offers flatter reliefs. It consists mainly of plains, arid plateaus and rocky coasts. There are white sandy beaches protected by coral reefs on this island, such as Sainte-Anne, one of the best-known towns on Grande-Terre. The Grande Anse at Deshaies (to the north) is also one of these beaches that is a candidate for being the most beautiful on the Creole island.

Joining Grande-Terre with Basse-Terre, you'll also find the famous town of Pointe-à-Pitre, in the centre of Guadeloupe. When the weather is good, head inland and enjoy a good session of water sports in Morne-à-l'Eau. Impossible to leave the coast of the tropics? Sainte-Rose is well worth a visit. Everywhere in Guadeloupe you will find a sugar cane plantation or a very good distillery - you will master the ti-punch better than anyone else!

The most beautiful anchorages of Guadeloupe:

Terre-de-Bas: in Petite Terre, in Terre-de-Bas, the mountain forges the character of this atypical site. You will also find there the magnificent Deshaies garden, a real jewel of Guadeloupe.

Anse Canot: sail east to the south of Pointe-à-Pitre and you will find yourself surrounded by palm trees, incredible beaches with turquoise water? A real paradise!

Pain de Sucre: volcanic on the surface and magnetic underwater with its colourful seabed, Pain de Sucre is an exceptional anchorage.

Îlets Pigeon: this 5-star dive site will delight lovers of underwater fauna and flora, as well as the surrounding Pigeon National Park (formerly known as the Cousteau Marine Reserve).

When to sail in Guadeloupe?

The best time to sail in Guadeloupe is between December and April. The average outside temperature is 30°C and the water temperature varies between 27 and 32°C: a real on-board experience awaits you. This is also the time of year when the wind is most favourable and the sea is fairly calm.

Rent a boat in Guadeloupe with a captain

The Guadeloupe archipelago is an ideal sailing area for family cruises. To enjoy even more pleasant moments on the boat and breathtaking panoramas, you also have the possibility to rent a captained boat in Guadeloupe.

In addition to taking care of the manoeuvres, the captain will know how to be the ideal crew member. He will be able to pass on his passion for sailing and help you prepare your itinerary around the island of butterflies. You can also let the captain take care of the navigation and enjoy the view.

Which boat to rental in Guadeloupe?

Cruising the turquoise waters of Guadeloupe is a great idea, but what kind of boat? Finding the ideal boat for your cruise is not always easy. Here are a few tips to help you find the ideal boat for your sailing project. 

Ideal for day trips or water sports, renting a dinghy or semi-rigid boat, also known as a RIB, is a safe bet for thrill seekers. This type of boat will allow you to easily access small hidden coves inaccessible by sailboat or catamaran.

The sailboat is the best ally of sailors in search of exploration and sensations. We recommend renting a sailboat to explore the unknown corners of Guadeloupe. Are you going to stay on land?
