Summerwind Sailing Experience
Overnight SAILING ADVENTURE
Overnight adventures involve sailing in the historic U.S. Virgin Islands or the St. Augustine (Florida) area and anchoring or mooring off of downtown, along lovely sandy beaches, or in secluded coves. Longer adventures can take between 5–10 hours of ocean sailing each way, so plan on spending a good part of the day sailing off-shore when traveling to other destinations.
We also offer a breathtaking overnight sail on the ocean when returning to St. Thomas or St. Augustine. On Summerwind, you are in command of the schedule. Our meal options range from home-style Southern cooking to oysters, caviar, and champagne. We offer endless customized experiences to make your sailboat cruise an unforgettable experience!
We usually arrive in Fernandina or Cumberland just as the sun sets and in time for dinner. If you want to enjoy a relaxing sailing trip with sailing charters in St. Thomas, we’d be delighted to offer the crème de la crème in sailing excursions!Whether you’re planning a day sail, night sail, or both, we’ll offer the convenience of a luxury yacht charter in St. Thomas. Thank you for trusting us!
