Eendracht:
Martinique (MQ) - Martinique (MQ)

15 January - 23 January 2023

White winter on the Eendracht: sun, sea and white beaches. Step on board in Martinique to explore the Caribbean islands. Diving, snorkeling or relaxing with a book on the beach? Everything is possible during this laid-back journey. This is a beautiful sailing area with impressive nature on land and under water. Turtles, dolphins, tropical forests, imposing volcanoes and waterfalls. Sail along and experience it! Near Martinique there are many beautiful islands to visit. Anchor in places where you normally wouldn’t get to. Think of: Bequia, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, but Grenada is also a possibility. The captain decides which islands will be visited for optimal weather conditions. Open to Windseekers aged 15-80.

STO Garant

This Journey is covered by the STO Garant guarantee. You can find the conditions for this guarantee scheme on STO Garant’s website (www.sto-garant.nl/en/downloads).

This process is automatic and you do not need to do anything else. After receiving your booking, Windseeker will send you detailed information on how and when to pay for your journey – together with all the other important details.

 

What does it mean?

In short: you do not pay the booking amount to Windseeker but instead into an escrow account. This trust account holds your payment in reserve until your journey’s end. The booking amount is then released to Windseeker on the day after your trip ends. If Windseeker or the Ship should become financially insolvent before the end of your trip, STO Garant will implement the guarantee. The Guarantee Scheme details how you can make a claim under the guarantee in such cases. You can read more about this here.
