Type of Vessel

Wind Surf - Windstar's Flagship Sailing Yacht

On any day, the 310-guest flagship, Wind Surf, draws admiring glances as she glides majestically into port with her tall sails billowing. And her beauty is far more than skin deep.
Starting with all new finishes and furnishings in suites and staterooms, Wind Surf renovation now brings you some of the most beautiful public spaces at sea.
During their cruise, guests will find the perfect setting for ‘making an entrance’ in the beautiful new reception area – and, appropriately, that’s only the beginning.
When you return to your stateroom, the luxury gets personal. Windstar’s signature bowls of flowers and fresh fruit will still be waiting for you, along with rich tufted headboards, soft seascape colors, beautiful new upholstery, and fine count Egyptian cotton linens welcome you to an oasis of relaxing indulgence.
Everything about Wind Surf speaks of welcome. Come aboard and see it for yourself.

Itinerary

Day 1: Philipsburg, St. Maarten | Pastel-colored buildings and shops filled with tempting souvenirs herald your arrival to bustling Philipsburg. Situated near the harbor on the Dutch side of St. Maarten, Philipsburg owes its discovery to Christopher Columbus in 1493. Today, celebrated Front Street is home to a number of local Creole restaurants as well as jewelry stores, stylish boutiques, and lively casinos for visitors seeking an upbeat island experience.
Day 2: Barbuda, Barbuda | Oh so pretty in pink. Beaches, that is. This is another of those ports reserved for the yachting set, with an appropriately laid-back atmosphere that ranks bird watching and collecting conch shells as an ambitious day.
Day 3: Roseau, Dominica | Get ready for a full day with plenty to do. Snorkel alongside brilliant parrot fish in the bubbly waters of Champagne Beach. Take a break to enjoy more than 150 species of plants and brilliant red-necked Jaco parrots at the botanical gardens. If you’re up for an optional hike, don’t miss Boiling Lake and the Valley of Desolation at Dominica’s Morne Trios Pitons National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Day 4: Pigeon Island, St. Lucia | The Pitons’ two volcanic peaks rise more than 2,400 feet to welcome you to St. Lucia, an island of lush green valleys, vast banana plantations, and bubbling sulfur springs. With 24 miles of vibrant coral reef, this is a slice of maritime heaven for divers and snorkelers. Nearby Pigeon Island National Park features impressive ruins of English forts, archaeological relics of Arawak Indians, and more splendid beaches.
Day 5: Les Saintes, Guadeloupe | This is the Caribbean as you’ve always imagined it, with yacht-filled harbors set against volcanic mountains and endless stretches of palm-fringed beach. Thanks to their relative isolation, the islands of Les Saintes have maintained much of their original character. The underwater world here has attracted the likes of Jacques Cousteau, but even novice snorkelers will enjoy exploring these impossibly blue waters.
Day 6: Basseterre, St. Kitts | Situated against an irresistible backdrop of emerald green hills, Basseterre is one of the loveliest of the Caribbean’s small capitals. Although the town is populated by elegant Georgian architecture, more than a quarter of St. Kitts has been set aside as a national park.
Day 7: Gustavia, St. Barthélemy |Affectionately known as St. Bart's, this is the bait that draws celebrities out of hiding. Stand at the rail as we depart with sail unfurled under the clear night Caribbean sky.
Day 8: Philipsburg, St. Maarten | Pastel-colored buildings and shops filled with tempting souvenirs herald your arrival to bustling Philipsburg. Situated near the harbor on the Dutch side of St. Maarten, Philipsburg owes its discovery to Christopher Columbus in 1493. Today, celebrated Front Street is home to a number of local Creole restaurants as well as jewelry stores, stylish boutiques, and lively casinos for visitors seeking an upbeat island experience.

Be prepared for fun, food, and adventure on this exclusive Windstar Private Event. Our fun begins on a secluded beach in beautiful Pigeon Island, where the bar is open and local music is playing. You will be greeted by crew members with coconut drinks to welcome you. Our amazing beach buffet here is worth working up an appetite for — and there are plenty of activities to make that happen. While the chefs work their magic, we’ll help you find the fun. Highlights include an Officer vs. Guest volleyball tournament, bocce ball, Steiner Fitness Program, and a mixology class featuring a local-themed drink. We definitely suggest you take advantage of our snorkeling equipment here. When you come up for air, take a selfie with your lovely yacht in the background … or … sneak away for beachside relaxation at umbrella cabanas. All in all, a special day where, at this Windstar Private Event, you can choose to do a lot or nothing at all.
