CCA-NYYC JOINT CRUISE - GUADELOUPE - 16-22 MARCH 2024

Following the Antigua Cruise

The beautiful archipelago island of Guadeloupe welcomes your arrival in March, 2024. The interest level is high, with at least 16 boats (both charter and private) and over 60 members and guests showing commitments for the second week of the cruise. Charter boats will become scarce, so plan accordingly, with the information provided on the website.

The sail from Antigua to Guadeloupe is usually a close to broad reach (ENE-ESE) and at 40 NM will be an easy day trip to our first destination at Deshaies. You will need to clear customs and then have the opportunity to get acquainted with the island and enjoy the town and wonderful French atmosphere. A reception and dinner (not to be missed) is planned on Sunday, March 17th, at the renowned botanical garden, Le Jardins Botanique. Following our stay in Deshaies, we will cruise along the west side of Guadeloupe to Pigeon Island, where you can snorkel in the Jacques Cousteau Park, relax at the beach and/or explore the island on your own. Tuesday, March 19th we'll sail to the idyllic islands of Isles de Saintes, where you will experience amazing food, incredible views and all sorts of activities. The following day, we are organizing a closing cocktail reception and dinner through a local restaurant that is sure to be memorable. Casual dress is required.

Final payment of $350 per person is due by February 1st. Please use the payment/registrations link to make payment for your party (and make sure to share this information with your crew if they are paying for themselves).

Respectfully,

Andrew and Hilary Armstrong - Guadeloupe Cruise Co-Chairs
