Last year Trinidad, this year Saint Martin! A new experience for us, we're celebrating Carnival 2025 on the French side of St Martin, an island in the northern windward islands of the Caribbean. The small but vibrant parade showed a passion for the spirit of Carnival with each troupe performing for the crowd and showing of their skills. There was dancing, drumming, moko jumbies and whip cracking, with a positive vibe as visitors and locals alike shared in the day. Being about to experience different cultures and events around the world is one of the highlights of living on a boat! https://www.travelsketchsailing.com/ ☝ Check out the website for more info on us, the places we go and products we use 📷 After backpacking Asia, road tripping Europe and doing a bit of van life, we’re now exploring the world aboard our Leopard 45 catamaran. 🎶 Music from Artlist ➼ Get yourself 2 months free with a subscription https://artlist.io/Telicia-1577425 #saintmartin #travel #travelvlog #lifestyle #caribbeanisland #travel #stmartin #caribbeanculture #localculture

If you are an exhausted (or lazy) pigeon intending to move from the swedish west coast and cross the "Skaw" to spend some summertime on the norwegian south coast, what do you do? - If your timing is in line with the Volvo Ocean Race 2014-15 finish in Gothenburg you could go for a ride on one of the worlds fastest monohull sailboats, a norwegian owned "Volvo Open 70".. See https://www.kullmann.no/pages/bkd-race1.html for more.

Find a secluded spot on pebble shores or discover hidden coves with soft sand. Relax on the beach with a good book, or take a refreshing dip whenever you please.

Tips for Your Trip Be sure to pack plenty of sunscreen, water, and snacks, as there are no shops on Male Orjule. If you're planning on exploring the island's interior, wear sturdy shoes. Don't forget to bring your snorkeling gear to explore the underwater world around the island. Since the island is car-free, be sure to check with your tour operator or charter company on how to transport any belongings you bring.
