This spring (9 to 12 March), nine superyachts gathered on the islands of Anguilla and Saint Martin for the inaugural Between the Bays event. Hosted in a collaboration between BOAT International and Belmond, the four-day itinerary invited guests to explore the resorts of Cap Juluca and La Samanna.
Watch full highlights from the Between the Bays 2023:
Between the Bays – hosted with premium partner Feadship and supporting partners Anguilla Tourism and Discover Saint-Martin – marked BOAT International's first event on the water since the pandemic and got underway at Cap Juluca on the island of Anguilla. Owners and their guests were welcomed on shore for a Peruvian-inspired welcome dinner hosted at the hotel's Events Pavilion.
The following morning, participants took part in a treasure hunt around the resort, before heading to Da'Vida on the north coast for a traditional Anguillan lunch and beach games. The day concluded with sunset cocktails with Feadship.
The next morning, seven of the attending yachts took part in a cruise in company across to Saint Martin’s La Samanna. The afternoon continued with a cocktail competition in Isla del Sol marina, where Enterprise was named the winner.
After the sun set, the programme continued with a beach party accompanied by a pan steel band and fire dancers at La Sammana’s beachside restaurant. To conclude, the event on the final morning guests were invited back to one of the resort’s private villas for brunch overlooking the Caribbean Sea.
