I am sailing on the Royal Clipper in January 2016 doing the Windward Islands and Grenadine Islands "back to back". Can anyone who has done either of these sailings tell me whether there are any wet landings involved? Do I need to pack my reef shoes?

Yes - there are wet landings. Could go barefoot but maybe better to have some shoes to protect your feet. You have some shoes to walk around with then - or go barefoot on the beaches. We use suitable shoes for wet landings.

Hi

I just returned from the Royal Clipper Grenadines route. There were wet landings in Union Island & Tobago Cays (didn't do the beach in Bequia). There was a dock at the Martinique beach. I brought reef shoes with me - I found them necessary on Tobago Cays. The beach on the far side is rocky and though the beach near the ship's barbecue was mostly sandy bottom where the tender leaves you - I did see a large sea urchins snorkeling in that area.
