The Antigua Charter Yacht Show: A Front-Row Seat for Beach Houses Homeowners

The annual Antigua Charter Yacht Show recently wrapped up, and it’s safe to say it was nothing short of spectacular! This internationally acclaimed event brought 66 luxury yachts to the waters of Falmouth and English Harbour, right on the doorstep of The Beach Houses community.

For homeowners at The Beach Houses, this time of year is truly magical. The harbour transforms into a bustling hub of activity, with superyachts ranging from 50 feet to a jaw-dropping 344 feet—the largest sailing yacht ever to attend the show—anchored in the bay. From motor yachts to multihulls, the dazzling display is a feast for the eyes, offering unparalleled views of some of the world’s most magnificent vessels.

A Celebration Beyond the Yachts

The Antigua Charter Yacht Show is more than just a showcase of luxury vessels. It’s a week filled with excitement, exclusive social events, and a vibrant atmosphere that spills over into the local community. Homeowners at The Beach Houses are perfectly situated to soak in the lively energy, enjoy world-class dining, and mingle with attendees from all over. It’s a unique opportunity to be part of a global event that combines luxury, community, and culture in one unforgettable week.

This year, highlights included the much-loved Nelson’s Dockyard Marina Night, where yachts hosted glamorous parties, and the After Show Party featuring international DJs. The newly introduced water taxi service between marinas was also a hit, adding to the seamless and enjoyable experience of the event.

Food lovers had plenty to celebrate as the annual Concours de Chef and Tablescaping Competitions added a creative flair to the week. With themes like “The Art of Charter: An Immersive Culinary and Sensory Voyage,” yacht chefs and stewards dazzled judges with exceptional menus and elegant table designs. The results were nothing short of extraordinary and highlighted the top-tier talent aboard these luxury yachts.
