What a 6 hp day looks like
With 6 hp you don't cross the sea: you potter around the Cul-de-sac du Marin, a perfectly sheltered mangrove bay turned the Caribbean’s largest charter base, picnic on board, swim at anchor. A near-permanent easterly trade wind, accelerating in the Saint Lucia channel — the operator adjusts the day's area accordingly.
Booking smart
License-free boats go fast: demand peaks from December to April, the Grenadines in most crews’ sights, and the port's fleet can often be counted on one hand. The calmer morning slot is also the most pleasant.
How it works
Rather than juggling four tabs, run one search: the catalogues of Boataround, SamBoat, Click&Boat and GlobeSailor are queried in parallel and the boats in Le Marin ranked at the price actually displayed. You then book directly with the operator, at no extra cost. To understand how the platforms differ, here is our comparison.
