From the Med to the Caribbean — get your Grenadines season booked before you cross
Most Caribbean season decisions are made in the Med, between Monaco and the Canaries. Appointing your Grenadines agent at that point costs nothing and locks in the berths, park bookings and provisioning that get tight from December.

- We send a rate sheet and schedule a call rather than a drawn-out quoting process.

Questions captains ask us first
How early should we appoint an SVG agent?
As soon as your crossing plan is set — typically September or October. Early files get the best berth and Tobago Cays availability for the January–April peak.
Is there a cost to appoint before arrival?
No. We open your file, hold options and send a rate sheet. Charges only apply against services actually delivered.
Can you meet us at a European yacht show?
Yes — our team attends the autumn shows. Message us and we will arrange a time to talk through your season on the dock.
