Best way to explore the Caribbean

We spent a week sailing with Piet and Ester from Martinique to Guadeloupe and can wholeheartedly recommend this experience.

Because we had to change our travel plans at short notice (Caribbean instead of Vietnam), we only booked the trip three days in advance. Despite that, everything was incredibly easy and smooth. Piet and Ester were very flexible and helpful when it came to organizing our arrival and departure, and getting on board was completely hassle-free.

You immediately notice that both of them are very experienced sailors and truly passionate about what they do. I had some sailing experience already, while my girlfriend had never been on a sailboat before. They managed to involve both of us perfectly, and we felt comfortable and well taken care of the entire time.

The boat itself is also a highlight: it is fully electrically powered, which makes it very quiet, yet still fast and surprisingly spacious. It makes the whole sailing experience even more relaxing.

We also really appreciated how Ester had already taken care of most of the shopping and logistics in advance. Thanks to that, we were able to simply enjoy our week in the Caribbean without worrying about any organization.

If you want to experience the Caribbean at its very best — under sail — or even dream about crossing the Atlantic one day, we can highly recommend sailing with Piet and Ester. If you get the chance while they are still sailing here before heading back to Europe, you should definitely take it.

Thank you Piet & Ester, and all the best for the rest of your journey!
