Your possible stops during this cruise

Discover our sailing excursion in the Guadeloupe Lagoon
please note: "The itinerary will depend on weather conditions, your wishes and those of your skipper."

Here's the itinerary:
For a perfect experience of connection with nature, I propose a peaceful outing with the wind, during which you can learn to sail while enriching your knowledge of the marine world.
We'll be sailing on a calm stretch of water, protected by the coral reef, with several stopovers that will include the possibility of swimming, snorkeling, paddling or canoeing.

- Departure is at 7.20 a.m. in calm waters, and you'll be welcomed with coffee and local juices to start the day.
- Our first destination will be îlet Caret, an even more enchanting place in the quiet of the morning.
- We'll then take a detour to the coral reef, where you can dive and discover a wreck teeming with multicolored fish.
- After this exploration, we'll sail to the îlets de la Biche. These islets are protected from the prevailing winds by small mangrove trees, ensuring a peaceful environment. This is our last stop before returning to the embarkation point around 4:00 pm.

You'll be comfortably seated under the protection of two custom-made removable canopies, which will shelter you from the sun or the rain. What's more, our sanitary installations respect the environment by eliminating any undesirable discharge into nature.

If you wish, you can take part in the maneuvers.
The Kaïdoz, the boat I'm steering, has two linked rudders, which makes for safer sailing.
Passengers can hoist a sail or tack a jib, as long as the maneuvers are prepared in advance.
It all depends on the interests of the passengers, the weather conditions and the situation.
I don't give sailing lessons, but I do share my knowledge of the sea and the surrounding flora and fauna.

Xavier is not only an excellent skipper, he's also a great teacher. Excellent food and drink, a great atmosphere and even a dolphin to accompany us for a while. 5 stars well deserved!

The cruise

We spent a very pleasant day with Xavier. Everything was very well organized on board: a small welcome snack (local cookies, coffee!), fresh homemade fruit juice at lunchtime and a delicious meal prepared by him using fresh, local produce. The spots are well chosen, sometimes outside the classic, overcrowded spots! The sailing from start to finish was exceptional.

The skipper

Xavier is attentive to the people he welcomes aboard his yacht and very respectful of the environment. What's more, he's an excellent skipper who has a wealth of knowledge to teach you about sailing, nature and marine life. Thank you Xavier!

Best memories

A magical and unexpected encounter with a family of dolphins who came to swim near the yacht, and lunch in the middle of the mangrove, surrounded by pelicans!

This was an excellent day, even though it rained for an hour. Good snorkeling and paddling around the mangrove bushes, good overview of the entire laguna, nice boat.

The skipper

Xavier is very knowledgeable in navigating through the undeep mangroves and had all kind of equipment to protect passengers in a bad weather period. Explained a lot and prepared a perfect lunch - the best I yet had in Guadeloupe.

Xavier is among the best skippers I have sailed with over my 50+ years of sailing all over the world.Safety is his main concern then customer comfort.

The skipper

Xavier organized a wonderful day of sailing,snorkeling and for some kneeling rides on 2 Inflatable SUP's and a lot of fun in the water.He put together a superb vegetarian lunch while explaining all the ingredients,some especially made for Xavier at local shops.The boat is perfect for these outings,ample room in the large comfortable cockpit.The boat is also very responsive to the helm,I learned this first hand as I had the helm for the first leg of our journey.

Best memories

The entire day was the best memory.It is hard to put into word how great the day was.The other passengers were a family of 6 from Connecticut, they were the finest people to cruise with.The day was very special.

A great time, despite the capricious weather. Xavier is a very professional skipper, as well as a very good cook. His sailboat is very safe and well adapted to this stretch of water. We highly recommend this trip and will be back soon.

The skipper

Well done Xavier, and thanks again for a great day. The whole crew is delighted.

Top day with Xavier. We sailed to ilet Caret, where we had a swim and spotted some small fish. Then we headed for the wreck to discover the rich aquatic fauna. Finally, a lunch stop where we were alone in the world, snorkeling and paddling to discover small mangrove islets and their wealth of small fish. A succulent vegetarian meal was prepared for us by Xavier, accompanied by a delicious planteur and a house-arranged rum. We recommend without hesitation.

The cruise

The experience is very good, one can see a lot of beautiful places and fishes. It's possible to practice paddle, and to enjoy snorkel, which was perfect. Moreover, the food is fresh and great and he offered us some local drinks and some organic ones.

The skipper

Xavier knows very well the area, is highly experienced in the sea and tries to help you as much as possible. The only negative point is that almost all explanations are in French and it was said to be in English so I lost many explanations...

The cruise

A perfect day with Xavier. He was able to pass on his passion for sailing by involving us in the boat's manoeuvres. The children were delighted to have had the chance to steer the boat, and it was a great way to discover the lagoon, sailing with the wind in a small group. The dive on the wreck remains the magic moment of the day! Thank you for the excellent meal, with fruits and Peyi vegetables cooked by our captain, a delight and yet another discovery of new flavors. This is a sailing trip you should not miss on your vacation in Guadeloupe.

The skipper

We discovered sailing, the lagoon, Guadeloupe, your anecdotes... A great moment of exchange!!!! Thanks again for a wonderful day.
