The Experience

Six hours aboard one of Grenada’s most distinctive sailing boats.

Spend the day sailing Grenada aboard Jambalaya, a 73-foot handcrafted Caribbean schooner built on the shores of Carriacou in 2002. Drawing on a 200-year local boatbuilding tradition, Jambalaya offers a very different experience from a modern production catamaran.

The six-hour day sail combines genuine sailing, snorkelling, lunch, snacks and drinks. Captains Monique and Danny focus on personal service, low-impact tourism and a relaxed Caribbean atmosphere, making this an especially strong fit for guests who value character and local heritage as much as the destination itself.
