Leeward islands charter cruise

[bobhunt]

hello Forum, Have got a good deal on a two week charter from Guadeloupe to saint Martin, one way on 42 foot cat, lucky me ! I have sailed in the Caribbean before 10 years ago and seem to think a lot of my favourite spots were in the windward islands, although Montserrat still sticks in the mind especially the bar where our host was asleep all time we were there,just help yourself to a beer and put a dollar in the tin!
Can anyone give me there must sees or there must avoids? Best for diving/ snorkelling?most sleepy laid back?best beach BBQ?
Also can anyone recommend a pilot book? Is there any digital ones out there?
Thanks bob

I would not be without the guide by Chris Doyle.

Here is my proposed itinerary

Gosier The Saints Pidgeon Island [amazing snorkeling ask about the Cousteau trail ] Deshaies [ visit the botanical gardens ] Antigua Nelsons Dockyard climb the trail to Shirley Heights. Five Island Harbour is peaceful. Deep bay[ snorkel the wreck check for lobster in the mast stumps ] Montserrat and take the volcano tour with Joe Philip, St Barts walk up to the nick in the mountain above the airport to see why it is one of the scariest airports in the world. Ile de Fourche good snorkeling Tintamarre St Maarten [ nb it is a LOT cheaper to check in on the French side.
