Discover Îles des Saintes from the sea aboard YEMAYA. Depart from Dominica and sail north across the channel towards one of the Caribbean's most beautiful island groups.
Enjoy real sailing, spectacular coastal scenery, swimming, snorkelling and time to explore the islands — whether you join us for a day sail or as part of a longer Caribbean sailing adventure.
Discover Îles des Saintes Under Sail
Arriving by sailing yacht gives you a completely different perspective of Îles des Saintes. As the islands appear ahead, enjoy the approach under sail before entering the sheltered waters around the archipelago.
Once there, slow down and enjoy the Caribbean — swim, snorkel, explore ashore, enjoy a relaxed lunch and take in the scenery before continuing your journey or sailing back to Dominica.
