Cruise a Cat over Carnival with Horizon Yacht Charters 2011

Grenada CarnivalHorizon Yacht Charters Grenada has launched details of its all inclusive 7 night Catamaran Special Offer to celebrate the Grenada Carnival in August 2011. The Grenada Carnival is perfect for sailors who seek a blend of adventure, exceptional cruising grounds, music and plenty of cultural tradition.

Every Caribbean island has its own carnival and each one is unique. Its style a function of the individual history and culture of each island. A blend of traditions old and new which vent in a joyous eruption of colour and noise. This is not a tourist thing, it’s part of the heart and soul of each of the islands and is as essential to people’s existence here as rum and the sea. To be part of it, is to experience some of the real essence of the Caribbean ...brilliant if you’re the fun loving type.

Horizon Yacht Charters GrenadaThe Grenada carnival scene starts in July when preliminary contests are held to find the best Soca, Calypso and Mas Bands. Then continues at the beginning of August with the choosing of the Carnival King and Queen. But it all reaches a crescendo on 3 action packed nights and days from Sunday 7th August to Tuesday 9th and that’s the best time to be there. The Grenada Carnival is a ‘must-do’ experience.

After the Carnival is over just a day’s sail away there is a choice of quiet anchorages with beautiful beaches and crystal clear water in Carriacou and the small nearby islands of the Grenadines.

Whether bareboat or skippered yacht, Horizon Yacht Charters has a catamaran to suit this party event. From as little as US$1000.00 per person for the week all inclusive onboard a beautiful Athena 38 six guests sharing with a skipper onboard this dream vacation is available. Summer special offers exclusive for Carnival charters are also available for bareboat charters, 7, 10 or 14 nights. Contact info@horizongrenada.com for reservations.

From bean to bar with Horizon Yacht Charters
Grenada Chocolate Company

CocoDo you find yourself dreaming of chocolate, using excuses to go to the store so you can buy a chocolate bar, go to the store without an excuse just to buy a chocolate bar, believe that chocolate makes every day a better day, run screaming to your secret stash when you see images of chocolate or simply the mere thought of chocolate gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling inside? If you answered YES to any of the above and you love sailing in the worlds most beautiful cruising grounds then you are a prime candidate for chartering with Horizon Yacht Charters Grenada and taking in the Grenada Chocolate Company Tour!

To guarantee that your chocolate indulgence is completely guilt free we have the perfect answer. Why not burn a few calories before you start ripping off choccie bar wrappers? Leaving from Horizon Yacht Charters base at True Blue, stop at the hill forts that overlook St George's, for a stunning view of this historic town. Then climb to a cool 1,900ft and the Grand Etang Forest Reserve to see the ancient crater lake surrounded by lush, green rain forest. Descend to the east coast and another 15 minutes brings you to the village of Tivoli and half a mile further you reach the Chocolate Factory.

Chocoholics, sweet tooths and travellers alike can discover Grenada’s world of chocolate at the working museum located in the 17th century plantation, Belmont Estate, rich in historical information. The tour will take you through cocoa processing including ‘cocoa walking’ and inside the cocoa fermentation plant where demonstrations and delicious chocolate tastings are held. To experience the "rich chocolatey smells" from a factory is pretty irresistible. The tour continues around the estate and includes Grenada’s only goat dairy, goat cheese tasting, a craft market and workshop and a visit to the heritage museum. Belmont Estate’s delicious Creole restaurant offers an authentic Grenadian lunch made from local ingredients mostly grown on the estate.

An ideal taste of Grenada before you set sail through the Grenadines!

The walking tours are for all ages and take place throughout the year in all weather conditions (nothing can stop us from eating chocolate!). Taxi tours start at US$25 per taxi (up to 6 - 8 passenger capacity) which Horizon can arrange for you. To kick off your tour and to ensure your energy levels remain high, Horizon will give you a free bar of Grenada Chocolate.

Charter rates for 7 nights range from US$1995.00 to US$6495.00 depending on the size of the yacht and time of year. For a group of 4, this could mean as little as US$285 per person for 7 nights. Click here to view Grenada fleet rates.
