BEYOND

Beyond A sailing yacht built for the trade winds, Beyond charters the full arc of the eastern Caribbean — St. Barths, St. Kitts, Antigua and Barbuda, Guadeloupe, Dominica, Martinique, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada and Tobago — as well as the shallow, luminous waters of the Bahamas. Her appeal is less about statement-making than about rhythm. Life aboard moves easily between the saloon and the cockpit, and the cockpit table becomes the natural centre of gravity: long lunches that drift into the afternoon, glasses poured as the light goes gold over a quiet anchorage. Inside, deep sofas provide a cool retreat when the sun is at its highest, or a comfortable spot for a film once the day's swimming is done. The flybridge is where guests tend to end up. Shaded, open to the breeze and with clear views in every direction, it works equally well for early coffee, sundowners, or stargazing on a warm tropical night. Under sail, the atmosphere shifts again — quiet, steady progress between islands, and guests are genuinely welcome to take the helm rather than simply watch. The hydraulic aft platform is one of her most useful features in practice. Lowered, it becomes a private terrace at sea level: a launch point for swimming and diving, an easy place to step onto a paddleboard, or somewhere to sit with your feet in the water while the anchorage empties out. Beyond accommodates up to eight guests. Your BellaYacht advisor will confirm the exact cabin configuration. Her crew keeps the service attentive but unhurried — the kind of hospitality that reads the day rather than imposing a schedule. Days are shaped around your pace: a reef to snorkel, a beach reachable only from the water, or simply another hour at anchor before moving on. For families and groups of friends who want both privacy and time together, Beyond offers a straightforward proposition: island-hopping the Bahamas, working down the Windwards on a steady breeze, and very little reason to hurry.
