Antigua yacht charters
Antigua is a rare gem in the midst of the Leeward Islands. This small but popular island destination is a sailor’s best place to start a trek through the Caribbean’s open waters. With beautiful beaches, a lively islander culture, and several nearby islands and coral reefs to tour, your sailing vacation in Antigua will be a real treat.
Nature, Landscapes, and Nearby Islands
Antigua has a naturally hilly terrain, with many different capes inland, but smooth sandy beaches on the coast. Endemic fauna include a wide variety of lizards, tropical birds and sea life including sea turtles, barracuda and angelfish, among many others. Animals thrive here because of the dense forests, access to rivers and cover under the rocky cliffs, and the extensive rainy seasons that bring sources of food and water year round.
Several offshore, uninhabited islands shield northern Antigua from strong winds and currents. Montserrat, St. Kitts, and Barbuda surround the island, and can be reached within a day or two sailing trip. Guadeloupe and St. Anne sit directly south of Antigua, and provide a bustling culture and nightlife that many sailors enjoy. These islands and coral reefs are perfect for snorkeling, diving, or even a kayak or paddleboard excursion. 12 Knots Yachting Club offers a variety of watersport rentals for your Antigua yacht charter, from kayaks to paddle boards, fishing gear and more.

Charter a Catamaran in Antigua and Barbuda
Antigua and Barbuda are two islands that make up one beautiful country in the Caribbean Sea. Hiring a catamaran here will allow you to experience both islands to the fullest, as well as see the beauty of the sea and islands nearby. To charter the perfect catamaran in Antigua and Barbuda, book online with Yachtico.com today.
Catamarans are amazing boats on which to spend a holiday. They come in a variety of sizes, meaning you can find the right one for your sailing party and for your budget. They are also designed with passengers’ comfort in mind, and therefore have a lot of space to relax while on board. The cockpit area gives all aboard the chance to see the beautiful panoramic view of the Caribbean .
Because they are larger, and steadier on the water, a catamaran is the perfect boat to charter if you are traveling with children or with people who may get seasick. As they are built on a double hull instead of a single one, like motorboats and sailboats are, catamarans do not rock around in choppy water nearly as much. This makes it safer for children on board, and more pleasant for people who may get motion sickness.
To hire one of the catamarans available in Antigua and Barbuda, book online with Yachtico.com today. When you are relaxing on the boat deck in the middle of the sea, you will be so happy you did.

Antigua Yacht Charters
An Antigua luxury yacht charter offers unbelievable natural beauty and historical landmarks that are unrivalled in the Leeward Islands . Designer shops and lavish restaurants can be found within enchanting streetscapes of pastel facades. Once the Caribbean base of the British Navy, Antigua now boasts both a vibrant culture and a huge variety of beaches to offer a relaxing, sun-soaked charter vacation.
Antigua Luxury Yacht Charter An island with a great nautical heritage, Antigua is home to the only Georgian dockyard in the world. Over a hundred Antigua beaches of powder-soft sand, secret coves and turquoise blue waters are set against a backdrop of volcanic hills and surrounding islands. The A-list population of the island enjoy an average yearly temperature of 28°C, which only reduces to 25°C in January. A summer charter is particularly preferable with 8 hours of sunshine a day and the temperature of the Caribbean Sea around 30°C.
Luxury Yacht Charters in Antigua Antigua luxury yacht charters often start at the popular Jolly Harbour Marina before visiting Dickenson Bay and neighbouring island Barbuda, later stopping at Green Island and the world-famous Falmouth Harbour. Antigua offers stunning Baroque architecture, a National Park and some of the Caribbean’s best diving sites but is most famously home to Captain Nelson’s dockyard which provides a truly unforgettable charter experience.
Yacht Charters in Antigua
Named Sunsail’s ‘Destination of the Month’ for November, Antigua is certainly one of the finest Caribbean hot spots to enjoy during the winter. Whilst the weather reaches its peak temperatures in the months between December and April, the charter grounds are typically busier. With this in mind, visiting during the off-season means guests can enjoy some tranquility whilst still indulging in an inviting climate.
Charter Itineraries in Antigua With the Monserrat islands south of Antigua, neighbouring St. Kitts, St. Barts , St. Martin and Barbuda, an Antigua yacht charter offers a wealth of opportunities. The unique character of these islands is what makes Antigua such a popular superyacht destination. Parts of the Leeward Islands, such as St. Barts and the Virgin Islands , are particularly popular charter destinations due to their glamour and vibrant culture.
Chartering a Private Yacht in Antigua For more information about renting a private luxury charter yacht in Antigua and Barbuda, please contact your preferred Yacht Charter Broker , who can assist you in organising your dream itinerary, taking into account the needs of your party and the best time of year to visit this picture-perfect destination.

Yacht expert breaks down luxury superyacht tragedy after boat capsizes in freak storm: 'Always limits'
A luxury superyacht like the Bayesian , which capsized and sank early Monday with more than a dozen people on board, is typically built to withstand extreme weather conditions, but not everything is 100% guaranteed, says one expert.
Fox News Digital spoke with eSysman of the YouTube channel eSysman SuperYachts , to find out what could have gone wrong with the vessel.
The host, who identifies publicly as eSysman, told Fox News Digital that a high-caliber yacht like the Bayesian, should typically be able to withstand up to "extreme weather conditions," but qualified that "there are always limits."
"Obviously, any voyage plan will take into account the weather. Wind, wave sizes, and frequencies of the waves will be studied and precise prediction of weather has improved over the years, but it’s still not 100%," eSysman said, noting that it is ultimately the captain who is responsible for the vessel.
WHO IS MIKE LYNCH, THE BRITISH TECH ENTREPRENEUR MISSING AFTER YACHT SANK?
The Bayesian was notable for its single 246-foot mast — one of the world's tallest made of aluminum and which was lit up at night, just hours before it sank. Online charter sites listed it for rent for up to 195,000 euros – or around about $215,000 – a week.
READ ON THE FOX NEWS APP
Sicily's civil protection agency said that a tornado over the water known as a waterspout had struck the area overnight.
British tech magnate Mike Lynch and five other people were missing after their luxury superyacht sank during a freak storm off Sicily early Monday, authorities said.
Lynch's wife and 14 other people survived. Lynch was among six people who remain unaccounted for after their chartered sailboat sank off the Italian city of Porticello, near Palermo, sometime after 4 a.m.
"There’s always the possibility of survivors. This is why the search and rescue will keep going, no matter how slim the chances are," eSysman said. "But life expectancy in cold water is short."
If a vessel is caught in high-winds, eSysman, [they] will start their engines, and maneuver into a position where the wind is on the bow, avoiding the beam or the side of the vessel from being against the wind.
"We’re not sure if the yacht was at anchor or was sailing. The eyewitness report seems to suggest the vessel was anchored in the bay, but the AIS data's lost position said she was underway, so we're not sure which is correct," eSysman said.
"AIS" refers to "Automatic Identification System," which is a short-range coastal tracking system used on ships.
Per its YouTube channel, the team at eSysman SuperYachts comprises all serving or ex-maritime professions, with eSysman himself having more than two decades in the industry working on various SuperYachts of all sizes "including some of the largest in the world."
The crew and passengers of the Bayesian hailed from a variety of countries: In addition to Britain and the United States, passengers and crew were from Antigua, France, Germany, Ireland, Myanmar, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Spain.
The UK Marine Accident Investigation Branch is deploying a team of four inspectors to Italy to conduct a preliminary assessment. The Foreign Commonwealth and Development office said it was "providing consular support to a number of British nationals and their families."
Built in 2008 by the Italian firm Perini Navi, the yacht can accommodate 12 passengers in four double cabins, a triple and the master suite, plus crew accommodations, according to Charter World and Yacht Charters.

After luxury superyacht sinks off Sicily, British tech magnate Mike Lynch among those missing
ROME (AP) — British tech magnate Mike Lynch and five other people were missing after their luxury superyacht sank during a freak storm off Sicily early Monday, Italy’s civil protection and authorities said. Lynch’s wife and 14 other people survived.
Lynch, who was acquitted in June in a big U.S. fraud trial, was among the six people who remain unaccounted for after their chartered sailboat sank off Porticello, when a tornado over the water known as a waterspout struck the area overnight, said Salvo Cocina of Sicily’s civil protection agency.
One body has been recovered, and police divers were trying to reach the hull of the ship, which was resting at a depth of 50 meters (163 feet) off Porticello, near Palermo, where it had been anchored, rescue authorities said.
It had a crew of 10 people and 12 passengers, the Italian coast guard said. A sudden fierce storm had battered the area overnight, and struck the place precisely where the 56-meter (184-foot) British-flagged Bayesian had been moored.
“They were in the wrong place at the wrong time,” said Cocina, noting that another superyacht nearby wasn’t as badly damaged and was able to help rescue some of the 15 survivors, who included Lynch’s wife Angela Bacares.
The Bayesian was notable for its single 75-meter (246-feet) mast, one of the world’s tallest made of aluminum and which was lit up at night, just hours before it sank. Online charter sites list it for rent for up to 195,000 euros (about $215,000) a week.

One of the survivors, identified as Charlotte Emsley, said she had momentarily lost hold of her 1-year-old daughter Sofia in the water, but then managed to hold her up over the waves until a lifeboat inflated and they were both pulled to safety, Italian news agency ANSA reported, quoting the mother. The father, James Emsley, also survived, said Cocina.
Eight of the 15 people rescued and taken ashore at Porticello were hospitalized while the others were taken to a hotel. One body believed to be the cook was found near the wreck, but six others were unaccounted for and believed inside the hull, said Luca Cari, a spokesperson for the Italian fire rescue service.
Rescue crews located the vessel and deep-water police divers were trying to access the hull, Cari said. The operations, which were visible from shore, involved helicopters and rescue boats from the coast guard, fire rescue and civil protection service.
Fisherman Francesco Cefalu’ said he had seen a flare from shore at around 4:30 a.m. and immediately set out to the site but by the time he got there, the Bayesian had already sunk, with only cushions, wood and other items from the superyacht floating in the water.
“But for the rest, we didn’t find anyone,” he said from the port hours later. He said that he immediately alerted the coast guard and stayed on site for three hours, but didn’t find any survivors. “I think they are inside, all the missing people.”
He said he had been up early to check the weather to see if he could go fishing, and surmised that a sudden waterspout had struck the yacht. “It could be that the mast broke, or the anchor at the prow pulled it, I don’t know,” he said.
Cocina said the crew and passengers hailed from a variety of countries: In addition to Britain and the United States, passengers and crew were from Antigua, France, Germany, Ireland, Myanmar, the Netherlands, New Zealand and Spain, he said.

Dutch foreign ministry spokesperson Casper Soetekouw said the lone Dutch citizen on board, a man, had been rescued and was not in a life-threatening condition.
Lynch, once hailed as Britain’s king of technology, was cleared in June of fraud and conspiracy charges related to Hewlett Packard’s $11 billion takeover of his company, Autonomy Corp.
The not-guilty verdicts followed an 11-week criminal trial in San Francisco that delved into the history of HP’s 2011 acquisition of Autonomy, a business software firm founded by Lynch.
The fraud accusations represented a dramatic turn in the fortunes of an entrepreneur once described as the Bill Gates of Britain — a title he seemed to live up to when he netted an $800 million from the Autonomy sale.
The acquittal vindicated Lynch, who had vehemently denied wrong doing and portrayed HP as a technological train wreck.
“I’m looking forward to returning the UK and getting back to what I love most: my family and innovating in my field,” Lynch said in a statement released after the verdict.
The yacht, built in 2008 by the Italian firm Perini Navi, can accommodate 12 passengers in four double cabins, a triple and the master suite, plus crew accommodations, according to Charter World and Yacht Charters.
The vessel, which previously was named Salute when it flew under a Dutch flag, featured a sleek, minimalist interior of light wood with Japanese accents designed by the French designer Remi Tessier, according to descriptions and photos on the charter sites.

Search continues for British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and Morgan Stanley International boss after superyacht Bayesian sinks in Sicily tornado
Mike Lynch is missing along with his daughter, Hannah, though his wife has been rescued. Jonathan Bloomer, chairman of Morgan Stanley International, his wife Judy, Chris Morvillo, a lawyer at major firm Clifford Chance, and his wife are also among the missing.
Tuesday 20 August 2024 18:58, UK
British tech tycoon Mike Lynch and his 18-year-old daughter are among six tourists missing after a luxury yacht sank in a tornado off the coast of Italy.
One person is already known to have died following the yacht's sinking off the coast of Palermo, Sicily, as the body of the vessel's Canadian-Antiguan chef, Recaldo Thomas, has been found, the Italian Coastguard confirmed.
Four of the missing passengers are British and two are American, according to Italian newspaper la Repubblica.
Superyacht sinks latest: British inspectors deployed to scene
Survivors have been seen at the Di Cristina hospital in Palermo, while the coastguard said it believes Mr Lynch and the five others missing may still be inside the sunken yacht.
The British-flagged yacht, called Bayesian , had 10 crew and 12 passengers on board and sank at about 5am local time off the coast near Palermo.
Salvo Cocina of Sicily's civil protection agency said: "They were in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Jonathan Bloomer, chairman of Morgan Stanley International, and Chris Morvillo, a lawyer at major firm Clifford Chance, and both of their wives are also among the missing.
A spokesperson for Morgan Stanley said they were "deeply shocked and saddened" and added: "Our thoughts are with all those affected, in particular the Bloomer family, as we all wait for further news from this terrible situation."
UK insurer Hiscox, which Mr Bloomer also chaired, confirmed his wife was also among the missing on Tuesday.
A Clifford Chance spokesperson added its priority was "providing support to the family as well as our colleague Ayla Ronald, who together with her partner, thankfully survived the incident".

Mr Lynch 's daughter, Hannah Lynch, also remains unaccounted for but his wife, Angela Bacares, was rescued along with 14 others - including a mother who held her one-year-old baby above the waves.
Charlotte Golunski, 35, told la Repubblica she lost her baby Sofia for "two seconds", adding: "I held her afloat with all my strength, my arms stretched upwards to keep her from drowning.
"It was all dark. In the water I couldn't keep my eyes open. I screamed for help but all I could hear around me was the screams of others."
The baby's father James Emsley also survived, Salvo Cocina of Sicily's civil protection agency said. According to her LinkedIn profile, Ms Golunski is a partner at Mr Lynch's firm, called Invoke Capital.
Mr Lynch, described as the British Bill Gates, was cleared earlier this year of conducting a massive fraud over the sale of software company Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard (HP) in 2011.
Eyewitness: Every hour that passes, this rescue mission moves closer to a recovery
News correspondent
In Sicily, they're searching for survivors.
Fifty meters beneath these now calm waters are the remains of a superyacht, which was carrying 22 people when it was hit by extreme weather.
Relentless rain and wind battered the north coast of Sicily in the early hours of Monday, causing widespread damage on the land, and proving fatal at sea.
Fisherman Fabio was the first to the wreckage and told Sky News: "There were two sailboats half a mile away from the harbour with their anchors at sea.
"After 10 minutes, we saw a flare in the sky. We waited about 10 minutes to see the intensity of the tornado and went out to sea.
"We were first to give rescue, but we found no one at sea. We only found cushions and the remains of the boat."
The weather was so bad overnight that locals described it as being like nothing they'd ever seen before.
Waterspouts - essentially like tornados on the water - tore into the coastline.
The yacht had been anchored. The sailing mast lights had been twinkling in the night sky. By morning, they were gone.
Authorities haven't given up on those still lost at sea: Divers have already found one body near the wreckage, and they know with every hour that passes, this rescue mission moves closer to becoming a recovery.
There is also some speculation about the design of the ship, and perhaps what happened to the 75m mast, which was iconic on this particular yacht.
It was said to be the tallest aluminium mast in the world, and people here last night were talking about how they could see it glistening by night.
It's thought that mast may have got caught up in this rotating column of cloud, these waterspouts that we’ve been talking about, and that may have caused it to break and may have caused the boat to then go on and capsize.
Investigators and inspectors from the UK Marine Accident Investigation Branch are making their way to Palermo today to assist.

Lynch's co-defendant killed in car accident
His co-defendant in that trial, Stephen Chamberlain, was separately confirmed dead after he was hit by a car on Saturday.
Gary Lincenberg, his lawyer, said in a statement: "Our dear client and friend Steve Chamberlain was fatally struck by a car on Saturday while out running.
"He was a courageous man with unparalleled integrity. We deeply miss him.
"Steve fought successfully to clear his good name at trial earlier this year, and his good name now lives on through his wonderful family."
Cambridgeshire Police said in a statement on Monday evening that the driver of the car, a 49-year-old woman from Haddenham, remained at the scene and is assisting with enquiries.

Rescuers facing significant challenges
Divers have already made journeys underwater to search for the six missing people , Italian daily Giornale di Sicilia reports, but are facing significant challenges in trying to access the yacht.
Emergency responder Luca Cari told the news outlet the divers "can stay underwater for a maximum of 12 minutes, two of which are needed to go up and down," meaning "the real time to be able to carry out the search is 10 minutes per dive".
He added divers had identified a glass window on the Bayesian from which they could enter but said: "The spaces inside the sailing ship are very small and if you encounter an obstacle it is very complicated to move forward, just as it is very difficult to find alternative routes."
The UK Marine Accident Investigation Branch said four of its inspectors are being deployed to Palermo for a preliminary assessment, while cave divers have joined the ongoing search.
The hull of the ship is resting at a depth of 50 metres.
A spokesman for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) said: "We are in contact with the local authorities following an incident in Sicily, and stand ready to provide consular support to British nationals affected."
