Sailing from Terre-de-Haut without having to take the early morning ferry from Trois-Rivières: that's what Soléa makes possible with direct departures from Les Saintes.
Our Zodiac 7.50m with 300 horsepower awaits you on site, ready to sail, with enough range to let you spend the entire day exploring the archipelago at your own pace.
This formula is particularly suited for clients staying in Les Saintes or who wish to optimize their navigation time on site.

The advantage of departing from Terre-de-Haut

Renting a boat from Gourbeyre to go to Les Saintes requires you to dedicate one hour for the trip there and one hour for the return trip across the channel.
By leaving directly from Terre-de-Haut, you gain these two hours and dedicate them to what matters: anchoring in a cove, swimming, lunch on board, and touring the archipelago.
The price of this package includes the prior transfer of the boat, managed by us.

Anchorages and spots accessible from Terre-de-Haut

The archipelago of Les Saintes is made up of nine islands and islets, two of which are inhabited. From Terre-de-Haut, you can reach in a few minutes:

• Goat Islet Protected anchorage, turquoise waters, ideal for your first swim of the day.
• The wreck of the Lindy in the Bay of Les Saintes.
• Sugarloaf Mountain — The iconic spot of Les Saintes. Mooring on a buoy, snorkeling around the rock.
• Terre-de-Bas — the neighboring island, less touristy, which can be discovered by anchoring in the bay of Grande-Anse and its turtles at Grand Baie.
• The Augustinians and the Coach — the southern islets, wilder, for sailors seeking tranquility.
• Marie-Galante — Within 20 nautical miles of Terre de Haut, for holders of an offshore/ocean navigation license.

Sailing advice in Les Saintes

The Saintes Channel can form in the late morning, especially during the windy season (December to April). Leaving early guarantees calmer seas for the first anchorages. We will brief you on site according to the day's conditions.
