Blue Clipper:
Marigot (MF) - Marigot (MF)

12 February - 27 February 2019

In this tropical voyage you will sail out of, and come back to, the tropical island of Saint Martin. In between you will visit some of the idyllic Caribbean islands with their lush rainforests, white beaches, clear blue water and unique mix of cultures. The exact itinerary depends on the winds and weather conditions but you can be sure to discover a paradise on this trip. Open to Windseekers of all ages, minimum age 15 years.

Ports

Marigot is the capital of the French part of St. Maarten. It's a typical Caribbean town, complete with colorful houses, small streets and a relaxed atmosphere. The climate will help you adjust to the pace of life on the island, but if you want to do more than sip piña coladas, you'll find plenty to do. Visit the old fort St. Louis, overlooking Marigot bay, the French Quarter (Orleans), and Paradise Peak. But Marigot’s main draw is to just be there and enjoy one beautiful day after the other.
