Luxury yacht BACCHUS (ex.AQUA VITA, SHEHERAZADE) is newly refitted and lives up to her namesake with a whole host of water toys and amenities for an extravagant Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year charter in the Bahamas and Caribbean.
Built by Westport, this 50m/164.1ft superyacht sports a refined exterior in white and rich interiors in dark gloss wood, cream and navy blue. The result is an environment ready to impress for multi-generational family gatherings as well as everyday living. The large main salon and skylounge are joined by equally ample guest accommodation, and the outdoor areas boast an abundance of sunbathing spaces, a sundeck Jacuzzi and plenty of alfresco dining and lounging locations with optional shade.
The Bahamas has an impressive selection of white sand beaches scattered through the Exumas and Long Island, while Harbour Island adjacent Eleuthera is best known for its pink sand beach. Nearby Great Abaco offers a active outdoors types plenty to do on land and over the water, most notably the coral reef and seagrass meadows in the Fowl Cays National Park.
See in the New Year at lively Caribbean destinations such as the waterfront clubs and bars in the US Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands. Head to the less tourist-developed islands for more traditional and local celebrations ending with the majestic natural beauty at Guadeloupe, the southernmost Leeward Island.
