YACHT CHARTER Caribbean
The Caribbean is known for being one of the most exotic places on earth. A holiday on board a private yacht is the best way to explore it.
The best locations are prime targets for celebrities and others during the winter season because of the warm and very temperate climates in the area.
Enjoy pristine beaches, clear waters and some of the best fresh food on the planet. World Yacht Group has an exceptional selection of the best yachts ready for the perfect getaway and enjoy your Caribbean yacht charters.
U.S. Virgin Islands
Maybe it’s fulfilling your shopaholic tendencies at duty-free shops on St. Thomas. Or scuba diving and visiting rum factories on St. Croix.
Or exploring the unspoiled beauty of St. John and its natural park that is home to diverse birds, flora, and fauna.
Whatever it is that floats your boat, it can be found in the U.S. Virgin Islands while chartering your private luxury yacht from one island to the next.
British Virgin Islands
Whether getting your adrenaline fix with watersports on Tortola or enjoying a cocktail at a pirate-ship bar in a majestic bay along one of the 50+ isles, you may never want to leave the BVI.
Despite the celebrity visitors, these islands remain relatively untouched, and you can easily find yourself enjoying your favorite book on a secluded beach while your private chef prepares a delicious lunch on your yacht that’s anchored close by.
St. Maartin, St. Barths & Antigua
Between fusion cuisines, irresistible shops, and vibrant nightlife, St. Maartin and St. Barths are your foray into the relaxing Caribbean lifestyle favored by the jet-setters of the world.
Antigua is the go-to destination for anyone who is looking for an exciting Caribbean yacht charter that includes swimming and diving.
If crystal-clear waters, natural coral reef walls, excellent coastline, and numerous natural harbors and bays sound like paradise to you–Antigua should be on your itinerary.
Barbados, St. Vincent & the Grenadines
With a UNESCO World Heritage-listed capital and white-sand beaches, Barbados is a must-visit stop on any Caribbean itinerary.
Not too far from Barbados, at the southern tip of the Windward Islands, you’ll find St. Vincent and the Grenadines–the ideal archipelago for a luxury yacht charter.
See firsthand the stunning natural landscapes of the Grenadines–from visiting the memorable Soufrière volcano, to anchoring at your own private island for the night and enjoying a five-star meal prepared by your world-class personal chef.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I specify the food and drinks served during my charter?
Of course! All food and beverage preferences are discussed prior to the charter and we will ask you to fill out our Preference Charter Form where you will be able to choose any types of food you like, wines, liquor, brands of water and sodas, style of breakfast, etc… Every detail counts and we will make sure we have you covered.
Can I smoke on board?
Depends on every yacht. Ask your booking broker to let you know the smoking rules of every yacht. Most of yachts do not allow smoking inside for safety reasons but they have some designated areas in the outdoors or decks.
How much should I tip the crew?
Crew gratuity is at charterer discretion, although it is customary when you have enjoyed your stay and the attentive service of the crew. The suggested tip is between 5% to 15% of the charter fee, to be split equally between the crew.
