Why is it worth renting a yacht in Martinique?
Sailors who want to experience the Caribbean sun, wind and a real tropical adventure most often choose charters in Martinique. What drives them? To some extent, it is probably convenience - it is one of the more "European" islands, which means that both the tourist base and the tourist standards in place are higher than in other places in the Caribbean.
Of great importance is also the fact that Martinique is a very attractive place for sailing enthusiasts, but also for relaxation, sunbathing and blissful rest in the bosom of nature. It lies in the heart of the Caribbean and is one of the Lesser Antilles, or "windward islands". It is volcanic in nature, and its most impressive peak is Montagne Pelée - a volcano with a height of 1397 m above sea level. Its last eruption took place almost a hundred years ago (in 1929).
In terms of landscape, Martinique can be divided into two parts:
- north, dominated by fantastic tropical forests,
- south, abounding in beautiful sandy beaches and azure water.
The capital of the island is Fort de France, and a place particularly often visited by sailors is the large and modern port of Le Marin. Most charters in Martinique start from there.

Martinique – necessary documents
The island is a French overseas department, thanks to which Polish citizens only need an ID card (or a passport) to enter Martinique. It is important that the document is valid for at least six months from the planned date of departure.
Of course, a yacht charter in Martinique cannot take place without a captain with the appropriate qualifications - it is worth remembering that he should have at least a yacht helmsman's license and a radio operator's certificate (SRC).
If you do not have a licence, or some time has passed since your last sea voyage and you prefer to have someone else control your boat, you can choose a charter with a skipper. How to find it? It's simple - just select the appropriate option when booking a cruise in Martinique via our search engine . We have contact with many experienced skippers and we will easily find the right person for you.
What to choose - a yacht or a catamaran?
When planning a charter in Martinique, it is worth considering the issue of choosing the right vessel. Both yachts and catamarans are very popular there - which option will work better for you? In order to choose the optimal solution, it is worth taking a closer look at their advantages.
A catamaran is more expensive (you will pay more for both rental and port stops), but it offers more space, is more stable, and therefore does not "swing" as much as a monohull. If comfort is a priority for you and you are planning a charter in Martinique with a larger crew, choose a catamaran.
Monohulls are smaller and cheaper to rent. However, they offer less space on and below the deck, and they also have a greater draft, which means that you won't always get as close to the shore as with a catamaran. However, they provide much better performance and more fun to sail. So if you want to experience a real sailing adventure, renting a yacht in Martinique will be a great idea.
Cheap yacht charter in Martinique? It's possible!
Remember that when planning to rent yachts in Martinique, you can make a lot of savings. What to do to charter a boat as cheaply as possible? There are several ways to do this - choose the one that suits you best. For example, you can:
