408  Crewed Luxury Yachts for Charter in Antigua

Antigua Yacht Charters

An Antigua luxury yacht charter offers unbelievable natural beauty and historical landmarks that are unrivalled in the Leeward Islands . Designer shops and lavish restaurants can be found within enchanting streetscapes of pastel facades. Once the Caribbean base of the British Navy, Antigua now boasts both a vibrant culture and a huge variety of beaches to offer a relaxing, sun-soaked charter vacation.

Antigua Luxury Yacht Charter An island with a great nautical heritage, Antigua is home to the only Georgian dockyard in the world. Over a hundred Antigua beaches of powder-soft sand, secret coves and turquoise blue waters are set against a backdrop of volcanic hills and surrounding islands. The A-list population of the island enjoy an average yearly temperature of 28°C, which only reduces to 25°C in January. A summer charter is particularly preferable with 8 hours of sunshine a day and the temperature of the Caribbean Sea around 30°C.

Luxury Yacht Charters in Antigua Antigua luxury yacht charters often start at the popular Jolly Harbour Marina before visiting Dickenson Bay and neighbouring island Barbuda, later stopping at Green Island and the world-famous Falmouth Harbour. Antigua offers stunning Baroque architecture, a National Park and some of the Caribbean’s best diving sites but is most famously home to Captain Nelson’s dockyard which provides a truly unforgettable charter experience. 

Yacht Charters in Antigua

Named Sunsail’s ‘Destination of the Month’ for November, Antigua is certainly one of the finest Caribbean hot spots to enjoy during the winter. Whilst the weather reaches its peak temperatures in the months between December and April, the charter grounds are typically busier. With this in mind, visiting during the off-season means guests can enjoy some tranquility whilst still indulging in an inviting climate.

Charter Itineraries in Antigua With the Monserrat islands south of Antigua, neighbouring St. Kitts, St. Barts , St. Martin and Barbuda, an Antigua yacht charter offers a wealth of opportunities. The unique character of these islands is what makes Antigua such a popular superyacht destination. Parts of the Leeward Islands, such as St. Barts and the Virgin Islands , are particularly popular charter destinations due to their glamour and vibrant culture.

Chartering a Private Yacht in Antigua For more information about renting a private luxury charter yacht in Antigua and Barbuda, please contact your preferred Yacht Charter Broker , who can assist you in organising your dream itinerary, taking into account the needs of your party and the best time of year to visit this picture-perfect destination.

What is the best time to visit Antigua and Barbuda aboard a private yacht?

The best time to visit Antigua and Barbuda aboard a private yacht is during the high season, which typically runs from mid-December to mid-February. This period offers the most favorable weather conditions and a range of activities and events. Some key factors to consider when planning your yacht trip to Antigua and Barbuda include:

The weather – The high season corresponds with the dry season in the Caribbean. During this time, you can expect warm and sunny weather with minimal rainfall.

Water conditions – The Caribbean Sea is crystal clear during the peak season, making it ideal for making the most of your yacht’s many water toys and tenders. It’s also the perfect time to explore Antigua and Barbuda’s vibrant marine life or soak up the sun on white sand beaches.

Sailing Conditions – From December to April, the trade winds, which consistently blow from the east, are at their most reliable, allowing for optimal sailing conditions.

While the high season is the most popular time to visit Antigua and Barbuda, it’s also the most expensive and crowded. Travelers who prefer a quieter experience should consider visiting during the shoulder season (late April to May) or the low season (June to November).

What places in Antigua should I visit during my yacht charter?

Discover breathtaking views from Shirley Heights, where panoramic scenery unfolds before your eyes. Embark on a scenic hike from the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Nelson’s Dockyard to witness postcard-worthy landscapes. The one-hour trek is well worth the effort, rewarding you with unforgettable memories.

Take advantage of the opportunity to delve into the rich history of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine or witness the natural wonder of Devil’s Bridge, where the mighty Atlantic Ocean meets the tranquil Caribbean Sea.

Galley Bay Beach is the place to be for surfing enthusiasts, while thrill-seekers can zip-line through the lush rainforest, immersing themselves in an exhilarating adventure. Downtown St. John’s harmoniously blends historic charm and modern shopping areas with the vibrant brick walls of Heritage Quay and Redcliffe Quay near the waterfront.

Make sure you leave time to visit Stingray City Antigua, which offers a unique experience where visitors can interact with and feed the Southern Stingrays in their natural habitat. Guided tours are available, which provide information about these fascinating creatures. 

Sink beneath the waves and explore colorful fish and vibrant coral reefs. Some of the best spots include Mary Kay Reef, Jettias Wreck, Pillar’s Reef, and Rambo’s Reef.

Finally, consider renting a bike for a self-guided tour, enabling you to explore the islands at your own pace. 

What places in Barbuda should I visit during my yacht charter?

Barbuda’s hidden treasures await your discovery. Ffryes Beach, nestled from the main road, offers a secluded retreat worth exploring. The 11-mile beach stretches along Barbuda’s western shore and the Codrington Lagoon, primarily undeveloped and adorned with only a few luxury resorts and cottages. Witness stunning sunsets in peaceful solitude, knowing that the journey back to civilization may present a delightful challenge.

Uncover the enchanting beauty beneath Barbuda’s surface as you venture into its underground caves. The island’s unique limestone composition creates a myriad of splendid caverns, adding to its distinct allure.

Exploring Antigua: A Superyacht Charter Haven

By Frances Flannagan

Antigua is undeniably one of the most beautiful Caribbean islands with a plethora of activities on offer. Alongside being a popular tourist hotspot as the ultimate relaxation destination, it is also a superyacht charter haven. From taking in the island’s prettiest sights, to taking part in some of Antigua’s most unique experiences, we offer charter guests some of the very best recommendations for exploring arguably the most charming of the Leeward islands. Immerse yourself in all things Antigua, as we take you through what a day on this spectacular island and exquisite luxury location could look like.

It is early on Sunday morning, and you have just docked in Falmouth Harbour Marina. There was a small concern that there would not be a place that would accommodate a yacht of such size, however all worries soon disappear once you discover that Antigua is one of the main ports in the Caribbean, offering a sheltered bay and two large marinas for superyachts, as well as even more marinas for smaller vessels. Falmouth Harbour has been specifically developed with large berths and a deep draft to accommodate mega yachts, so it is the perfect place to dock. It is at this moment that the relaxation begins; all worries have subsided as you step onto the spectacular island that is Antigua. 

With 365 beaches on offer, there is no question that you will struggle to find somewhere to relax after your journey. From Dickenson Bay, Antigua’s busiest beach with numerous water-sports activities, to Pigeon Point, with shallow and calm waters for snorkelling and a quiet atmosphere for sunbathing, there are a range of options to accommodate every desire. You cruise East and drop anchor near Long Bay Beach, a fine stretch of white sand and crystal blue waters; the epitome of bliss. After some relaxation, you begin to explore the wonders that Antigua has to offer. Strolling by kiosks and restaurants, absorbing aspects of the welcoming local community, you make your way to Devil’s Bridge, to catch a stunning glimpse of the island’s natural rock formation. Standing on the rugged rocks, watching the waves crash into the East Coast as they have done for thousands of years and resulting in the formation of the natural arch, you very quickly begin to realise that Antigua really is something special. It is not just the hundreds of blissful beaches that it boasts, but so much more. 

After staring out into the ocean from the shore, you decide that a snorkelling trip is due. From the East Coast, you cruise to the North to anchor near Sting-Ray City. Here, you embark on another unique aspect of Antigua: a snorkelling trip in which the main ‘event’ is sting-rays. You take the boat to the shallow sting-ray pool and are instantly greeted by the friendly southern ‘rays. Up close with a creature you have before only seen photographs of, this is an experience that you will never forget. 

Adrenaline racing after this fantastic excursion, you decide that you would like to follow it with another activity. You’ve explored the sea, and now feel it is worth heading inland. You cruise back down the island and anchor down South, only a short drive from Fig Tree Drive Rainforest where you can explore the jungle by zipline. A great thrill as well as the opportunity to explore a new aspect of the island, this tour is unlike anything you have done before. Flying high amongst the canopy, immersing yourself in the flora and fauna, you feel as though you really have experienced all of the elements that Antigua has to offer. 

After strolling along Nelson’s Dockyard, another possible location for docking your superyacht, you make your way up to Shirley Heights. A picture perfect view overlooking both English and Falmouth Harbours, and the beautiful blue Antiguan waters, offering a glorious place to spend sunset on a Sunday for two reasons: the lookout point, and the party. From late afternoon to night-time every Sunday, an unforgettable night unfolds with local bands, barbecues and drinks until the sun goes down. Alongside the stunning view, and the mixture of locals and tourists drawing the week to a close in the same spectacular way, this is an evening to be remembered for years to come.

As the night draws to a close, the music becomes softer, and the people begin to disperse, your day's experiences begin to unfold in front of you. You are sure you have explored every aspect of this charming island and become immersed in everything it has to offer. From cruising to beautiful beaches and relaxing on the shore, to taking in the thrilling activities and bustling atmospheres, it is clear that Antigua is a uniquel and stunning place to visit: an undeniable superyacht charter haven.
