Caribbean Racing: Grenada Sailing Week

Join the crew for Grenada Sailing Week

Grenada Sailing Week is famous for its mix of spectacular race courses and unbeatable atmosphere. The routes wind past white sand beaches, jungle-covered mountains, and the turquoise waters of Grenada and Carriacou – undoubtedly one of the most beautiful corners of the Caribbean. With warm trade winds and stunning scenery, the sailing is as good as it gets.

But what really sets this regatta apart is the spirit. It’s relaxed, low-pressure racing with high-energy fun. Evenings are spent ashore with beach barbecues, live music, ice-cold beers, and cocktails under the stars. There’s no pretence here, just great sailing and a fantastic crowd. It’s a magical escape from the winter cold and one of the most loved events on our calendar.
