The Grand Anse Peninsula stands out with a stunning two-mile white sand beach and luxury resorts, perfect for beach lovers. Levera and the northern coast offer wild, natural coastlines with turtle nesting sites and quiet anchorages for nature enthusiasts.

The Grenadines feature pristine, uninhabited islets great for secluded snorkeling. Westerhall Bay provides a calm anchorage near the airport and resorts, convenient for arrivals and departures.

Grenada is home to several top-quality marinas that cater to yacht charters, delivering excellent facilities, prime locations, and unique local charm.

Port Louis Marina, located in St. George’s, the capital of Grenada, is one of the premier marinas on the island. It has approximately 60 to 70 berths, including slips for superyachts, with deep-water access that can accommodate larger vessels. The marina provides full services such as fueling, power and water hookups, customs and immigration clearance, provisioning, and concierge assistance. 

True Blue Marina is situated just south of St. George’s and features around 50 slips catering to yachts up to 21m. This full-service marina delivers fueling, maintenance, laundry, and on-site restaurants and shops. 

Prickly Bay Marina, on the southeastern coast of St. George’s, has roughly 60 berths suitable for both catamarans and monohulls. It provides services such as fuel, water, security, and basic boat repairs.

Yacht charter prices around Grenada in the Caribbean are shaped by several key factors including the type of yacht, length of the charter, and the time of year. The busiest and most expensive period is the high season, running from December through April, when demand spikes due to holiday charterers and events like Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. Conversely, the quieter months of late spring and autumn tend to offer better deals, with pleasant weather and fewer visitors. During these off-peak times, many yachts may relocate to other regions, such as the Mediterranean, to optimize their seasonal schedules. Booking a yacht for an extended period often provides better value, frequently accompanied by special discounts. To access the best selection and prices, planning ahead is advisable, although last-minute charters may occasionally present attractive discounts if availability permits.

In Grenada, yacht charters currently do not attract VAT or additional taxes, but certain fees may vary depending on the marina or services used. A customary Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) of around 30% to 35% is collected upfront to cover variable costs including fuel, provisions, beverages, mooring fees, and any bespoke onboard services. Any unused APA balance is refunded after the charter, with extra expenses billed separately, ensuring a smooth, tailored, and transparent experience for guests aboard their luxury yacht.

The prime period to enjoy a yacht charter around Grenada is from December through April, with the busiest and most vibrant season unfolding during the festive months of December to February. For charterers desiring a more tranquil and private getaway, the months of January to March deliver exceptional weather, calm seas, and fewer visitors, offering an intimate and peaceful escape. As April ushers in spring, Grenada’s warm, crystal-clear waters combined with steady trade winds create the perfect setting for a luxurious and rejuvenating experience, where relaxation and indulgence take center stage.

During the summer months from May to November, chartering a yacht in Grenada tends to be more affordable and less crowded, providing a quieter atmosphere for those seeking solitude. Although this period coincides with the rainy season and the Atlantic hurricane window, the tropical warmth and serene environment make it appealing for guests willing to plan with flexibility and caution, ensuring a safe and memorable voyage.
