Barbuda

4-Hour Cruise

Welcome to this often looked-over Caribbean paradise. Barbuda's beaches are empty so that crew can plan a private picnic or party and have the beach all to yourself. The Atlantic coast is great for kitesurfers while the Caribbean side has pink sand beaches and dotted with palms. Also great for fishing and divers due to the island's several shipwrecks.
