Antigua Sailing Week
2026
The Caribbean's most celebrated regatta. Seven days of world-class racing, legendary parties, and the finest Caribbean hospitality — all from the deck of your superyacht.
Regatta Begins In
Since 1968
The Caribbean's Premier Regatta
Antigua Sailing Week has been the pinnacle of Caribbean sailing since 1968, drawing over 100 yachts from around the world to compete in the warm trade winds of the Leeward Islands. Based at the historic Nelson's Dockyard — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — the event combines world-class racing with the legendary Caribbean spirit of hospitality.
For charter guests, Antigua Sailing Week offers the perfect blend of competitive sailing excitement and Caribbean luxury. Watch the races from your sundeck, enjoy water toys between events, and experience the famous après-sail parties that make this regatta unlike any other.
Bluebnc's Caribbean charter team arranges everything from berth reservations at English Harbour to VIP event access, provisioning, and post-regatta itineraries to Barbuda, St. Barths, or the British Virgin Islands.
