Sail through Grenada’s celebrated blue water and island-dotted horizons in a seven-day racing week that pairs short-course competition with island-hopping cruise legs. Grenada Sailing Week is built to deliver a real taste of the southern Caribbean: varied conditions, multiple race venues, and a strong community feel that makes it as much a social regatta as a development opportunity.

Highlights

THE ROUTE

Multi-venue island racing

The week moves between multiple racing venues around Grenada and neighbouring islands, giving sailors a chance to experience different waters and coastal scenery across the event.

THE COMMUNITY

Low-pressure, social regatta

Designed with a community feel, the event creates a relaxed environment for learning and camaraderie—ideal for those looking to develop racing skills without the burn of highly intense fleet events.

THE CONDITIONS

A taste of Caribbean wind and sea

For experienced racers the week offers heavier Caribbean conditions and varied race settings, but without the extreme intensity of the largest regattas—an accessible way to sample tougher local conditions.
