St Lucia or Grenada sailing? - 12/07/2020 03:46 AM
We’re considering a sailing breakout in Feb2021 for our experienced three couple group. Thinking of a St. Lucia to Grenada trip. Anybody have any insight into Covid restrictions or entry requirements of either of these areas?

I have no Covid experience, but keep in mind that you will be transiting 3 separate countries: St Lucia, St. Vincent/Grenadines, and Grenada. Being the Caribbean, the chances of them all having similar requirements for Covid are not very good. It is a great trip with good sailing and fun places all the way down.

You can read the restrictions here:

What tothedogs said. We did that exact trip a few years ago and C&I was a pain at times even without Covid. I'd love to do that trip again, but not sure I will go until everyone gets things figured out and mostly under control. You might consider chartering out of St. Vincent to Grenada to minimize C&I requirements. I actually think we'll do that regardless on our next trip as the best stops were south of St. Vincent anyway - at least in my opinion.
