Bask on remote beaches resplendent in natural beauty during this relaxing and uncrowded getaway to secluded Caribbean destinations Windstar specializes in.

Guide your own rigid inflatable boat (RIB) through Sir Francis Drake Waterway bays and isles around Jost Van Dyke. Sink in solitude to the silent depths where an 1867 steamship rests, an iconic Tortola dive site that doubled as an underwater movie set. Embark from our yacht’s onboard Marina Platform on your own self-directed snorkeling and kayaking adventures. Find the warm sunset twilight during an overnight port stay at Virgin Gorda. Windstar invites you to join us for our private Signature Beach Party, a fun in the sun affair, full of the rhythm and joy of the Caribbean.
