At the Southern tip of St Vincent

Traditional fishermen out at sea. Loving their modest appearance and the fact that they aren't using an engine. They must have strong backs after rowing like this for decades. A complete contrary to the young fishermen who rely on 150+ hp outboards mounted on a 20 ft boat...

Underway


On our way to St Vincent... 200 miles and two more nights to go.

A harmonic weekend


Finally I'll have some time to share some more photos from our wonderful stay at Buccament Bay Resort in St Vincent the other week. One afternoon we anchored up in the lush bay of Buccament, we got greeted at the beach by the staff with drinks waiting for us upon our dinghy arrival. What a mad contrast to our simple cruising lifestyle. Being the only boat anchored in the private bay that weekend, we had our Caos in clear view during our whole stay, making the experience one step greater, I mean how often do you get to arrive with and park your own boat on a five star resorts private waters just outside of the luxurious villa you're staying in for the weekend? 

The resort itself is idyllically located inside of a volcanic valley, among rainforest and steep green hills, a place on earth almost surreal in its beauty. The settings reminded us of a colorful fairy-tale with its natural fairness beyond imagination. The perfectly white sand beach laid out a smooth and silky carpet before the crystal clear water and the large pool area with a sophisticated bar and a stylish restaurant overlooked the same calm sea from above. Our villa was tastefully equipped with the latest technology, discreet art and all was decorated in subtle peaceful tones. We had a large private jacuzzi on our terrace and everything else was available that one could be in need of. A large comfortable bed with crisp white cotton linen for example, something that we don't really miss in our nomadic boat life before we actually get into one. Oh those mornings in the bed of the resort, wish they could never end.. We had only three things on our mind when we arrived to the resort and they all got very much fulfilled: eat, sleep and relax and I can't think of a better place for satisfying those needs and wishes than this place where the food and drinks were outstanding, the staff and the service was all equally flawless in every little detail and the ambiance and the astonishing surroundings gave us an incredible peace of mind. Three days swept away faster than ever before... Definitely hoping we'll get the chance to revisit one day.

One night at Buccament Bay resort, St Vincent.

Reborn

Oh man have we got spoiled here by Buccament Bay resort these last days. I mean.. seriously, extraordinarily, five star spoilt and pampered to the max. We've had such an amazing time and we feel like newborn again. Relaxed, fulfilled, happy and energized. Will get back to you with more photos from this glorious place shortly. We'll now be leaving up North again and will make several stops along the way, follow our track on the Spotwalla chart if you'd like.

Lounging continues

Sporting my new Ralph Lauren swimsuit that my man got me the other week.. you like?

Early morning

Fruits for breakfast, almost like on the boat. 

Hobie Cat sailing on the schedule today.

Boat in a pool

Once upon a time, one early morning in Ibiza right after a hard night at Cocoon-Amnesia, one of our very dear friends invited us to put our boat in his pool. I don't think I can describe neither the moment or the actuality of the story for you all out there but it was a good night, boat in a pool or not. This photo from tonight is for you Sean. Consider it another happy birthday greeting. Looking very much forward to have you with us in St Barts after the summer for more madness.

This resort we arrived to btw, is beyond insane as well. Absolutely fantastic place and Caos looks damn good being the only boat anchored in the private bay just outside of our villa, don't you think? M A G I C O.

Our home for the weekend

So the family has left home and Alex and I are all by ourselves again. To start off the weekend we have just arrived to the ridiculously beautiful Buccament Bay on the SW coast of St Vincent and its Buccament Bay resort. There is definitely something special with arriving to a five star resort from the sea and not by plane and road. Looking forward to a weekend full of relaxation, chilling by the beach, windsurfing, eating, maybe sailing a hobie cat and eating some more..

Happy weekend

Five more weeks to go before my own sister arrives in the Carib, luckily I've got Alex's here in the meanwhile. Cocktails on the beautiful Young Island, St Vincent tonight.
