The skipper

Go along with Philippe to discover the Caribbean, visit the most beautiful bays of south Martinique and the Caribbean coast of Saint Lucia.

What is your motto ?

Live passionately and intensely in the moment. Sailing is always a wonderful adventure.

How did you come to do this job?

Having grown up in Martinique, the sea has always been our playground: windsurfing, sailing dinghies, catamaran sports, regattas in the Caribbean. I bought my first 10m boat aged 30 to discover the neighbouring islands. After passing my Captain 200 exam, becoming a professional navigator was a no-brainer.

What people say about you?

Friendly and easy-going, steady and always smiling.

Life on a journey

Your best memory ?

Every day sailing aboard my boat is a new journey awaiting to begin. The sea has the privilege of offering you something different every day.

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

A successful cruise is the magic of seeing people who didn't know each other and who don't want to split up at the end of the cruise.

Your style of practice?

respect the sea, I love the wind, I share my passion and have a good time with my passengers.
