Discover more about Tradition Sailing Charters Anguilla

Tradition Sailing Charters offers an unparalleled opportunity to explore the turquoise waters of Anguilla aboard a vessel with a story as captivating as the island itself. 'Tradition' is a 42-foot Carriacou sloop, meticulously hand-built in 1978 on a beach in Carriacou, Grenada. Originally a working ship, she plied the trade winds, carrying cargo between Caribbean islands, even dabbling in a bit of smuggling from St. Barthélemy. Today, 'Tradition' enjoys a semi-retirement in Anguilla, offering visitors a chance to experience the romance of a bygone era. Step onto the wooden deck and be transported to the West Indian maritime days of old. The vessel exudes character, reflecting the craftsmanship and care of those who built and maintained her. Based out of Sandy Ground, Tradition Sailing Charters offers a range of excursions to suit every taste. Enjoy day sails to Prickly Pear and Little Bay, sunset cruises, and custom private charters. Captain Laurie Gumbs, an Anguillian native, and Deborah Vos, ensure a first-class experience, complete with gourmet appetizers, free-flowing champagne cocktails, and captivating stories of the Caribbean. Whether you're a seasoned sailor or a first-timer, Tradition Sailing Charters promises an unforgettable Anguilla sailing experience.
