You step off the dock at Yacht Haven Grande as the catamaran idles into a pale-blue morning. Salt air pushes at your hair, the crew greets you by name, and the harbor releases you into the Caribbean: first a ribbon of reef, then open water dotted with small islands. The boat threads a scenic southern coast route, dropping anchor at Turtle Cove where the water is startlingly clear and green sea turtles drift like slow ships beneath you.
