Caribbean New Year Sailing — Start 2027 Somewhere Extraordinary
Sail from Saint Lucia through Saint Vincent, step ashore at Young Island for New Year’s Eve, then continue into Bequia and the Tobago Cays before returning to Saint Lucia as the first days of 2027 unfold.
THE MOMENT
Midnight. Bare feet. Caribbean air.
New Year’s Eve takes us to Young Island, just off Saint Vincent. We arrive by sea, step ashore and welcome 2027 in the Caribbean — not as an add-on to the voyage, but as one of its defining moments.
Young Island by day — the setting for New Year’s Eve on this voyage.
THE JOURNEY
A flexible circular route through Saint Lucia and the Grenadines
Our Caribbean New Year sailing voyage follows a circular route from Saint Lucia through Saint Vincent and the Grenadines before returning to Saint Lucia. Depending on weather, sea conditions and the best overall flow of the trip, the route may be sailed either southbound or northbound.
The exact order and selection of stops can vary from voyage to voyage. That flexibility lets us make the most of wind, weather, guest interests and local opportunities while keeping the journey varied, relaxed and rewarding in both directions.
Rodney Bay can bring a lively marina atmosphere and excursion options ashore. Marigot Bay is one of the island’s most beautiful anchorages and a natural place for a sundowner. Further south, Soufrière sits beneath the iconic Pitons.
Depending on conditions, the voyage may include Chateaubelair, Wallilabou — known for its pirate-film history — and Mont Wynne Bay. Young Island is the defining New Year’s Eve stop on this departure.
Bequia, Mayreau and the unforgettable Tobago Cays are among the strongest possibilities. Depending on weather and timing, Mustique or Union Island may also fit naturally into the voyage.

The voyage continues after New Year
On this Caribbean New Year sailing route, New Year’s Eve is a highlight, not the finale. From Saint Vincent we continue through the Grenadines, with time for Bequia, clear-water anchorages and the Tobago Cays before sailing back towards Saint Lucia.
SMALL BY DESIGN
Two guest cabins. A very different atmosphere.
Caribbean New Year sailing aboard Aurelia Blue means travelling with only a small number of guests. Aurelia Blue welcomes only a small number of guests. You are not one booking among dozens and you are not following a fleet timetable. There is room for long breakfasts, spontaneous swims, evenings in the cockpit and enough space to withdraw when you want quiet.
Each guest cabin has its own private bathroom with shower and toilet. Snorkeling gear, SUP boards and fishing equipment are available aboard. You can join in with sailing when you feel like it or simply enjoy the passage.
LIFE ABOARD · FROM SEA TO TABLE
Caribbean days taste different aboard
Food is part of the voyage. We buy locally where it makes sense, cook with what the islands offer and make the most of fresh ingredients along the route.
On-board food and non-alcoholic drinks are €35 per person per day. Guest preferences, allergies and dietary requirements are taken into account wherever possible.
