  • Windy and Wonderful - Antigua to Barbuda
    Feb 20 2024

    Hi friends! We finally get smacked by this storm we've been watching for a week and what a ride it is. From scrubbing bilges to full moon parties on deck, the storm was largely uneventful. After the blow, we rent a car and check out the island - and the most fun party at Shirley's Heights! After that we jump a ferry to Barbuda the beautiful!

    Ahoy there! This week on Sommer Wind, we've got boat guests adding a splash of excitement to our New Year celebrations with both new and old friends.

    Welcome to our holiday adventure! This week was an absolute delight as we explored the stunning landscapes of St. Lucia. We hopped into our rental car and embarked on an adventure to Sugar Beach, indulging in the scenic views and local culture. Embracing the holiday season, we hosted a Christmas party, and danced the night away at the Gros Islet Street Party in Rodney Bay. Our celebrations continued as we set sail to Martinique, where we savored an array of foreign dishes in the company of newfound friends and sang karaoke, making this Christmas one for the books! 🎉🎄🌟

  • The Real Pirates of The CARIBBEAN! - Exploring Bequia, St. Vincent and St.Lucia
    Dec 19 2023

    Welcome back! This week, our exploration takes us to mainland St. Vincent—an absolutely breathtaking island where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed! We check out Moonhole and have a fun night experiencing the floating bar and a game night on Sommer Wind, which resulted in a slight deviation from our original plan as we missed our departure date from Bequia. However, we quickly adapted and chose to embark on an adventurous climb up Ma'Peggy before setting sail for the beautiful island of St. Lucia!

  • Soggy Sheets and Salty Seas: Tobago Cays, Mayreau, and Bequia
    Dec 10 2023

    Hello everyone and welcome back!!

    In our ongoing nautical journey, this week we enjoy the delights of Tobago Cays, our favorite anchorage in the Caribbean. Moving onward, our voyage led us to Mayreau, where we learn the impact of cruise ships on local communities. Our passage to Bequia was wet and wild! Complete with DOLPHINS, squalls, and a soaked bed. Upon arriving, we endured a rolly anchorage, had a beach BBQ, and found the elusive “Cinnamon Garden.”
