CROSSING BORDERS AND HOW I THINK - SwT 38 (COVID TRAVEL TIPS)

Traveling in a world of COVID, is it even possible? It is, at least here in the Caribbean but it's not always as easy. However, you need time and always look for options. Find out how and the reasons for my decisions and why I sailed nonstop from Carriacou to Martinique. Clearing in procedures and how it works today as my experience traveling between islands in the Caribbean.
Disclaimer: Remember nowadays things change rapidly due to COVID travel restrictions and rules and protocols may be subject to change shortly after this video was published. I therefore highly recommend reading up on destinations before you make your own decisions and plan your travel. There are some crazy stories out here of people who had really bad experiences trespassing borders and not having documents in good order. Freshly updated information is key to your success traveling nowadays.
Hope you enjoy this video and remember what I say or do in my videos might not be the correct thing for you. I'm just showing you how I do things without claiming this is the only correct way to do things.

About this channel:
I'm Sailing singlehanded around the world in a Bavaria 55 Cruiser, making videos whenever I have time for it. Most of the time I sail singlehanded but occasionally I do have sailing friends onboard. Currently in the Caribbean after I had to return from Panama because of lockdown and closed canal stopping me from reaching the Pacific. I have not given up the Pacific dream and my goal is to transit Panama and head out the Pacific during 2021
Please be kind in the comments!
I'm just a normal person sharing my adventure.

Hey Thomas! Been following you since you left PLM. Believe it or not, we're still on the dock! :( Glad you are out there sailing and enjoying some new scenery. You didn't mention the number of Covid cases in Martinique...are they going down? It's weird seeing people getting together and partying with no masks! We miss those days...still under a curfew here. Cheers and happy sailing! Steph and Tim

[@SailingwithThomas]

Hey Steph and Tim!!! So cool you’re following my adventure here🙏🏻 We had so much fun and great time in PLM🍻 I believe it was time to leave and just in time to enter French territory as of Monday night they are again closing the borders😅 It around 17 new cases daily here but it’s a big island and lots of people. I’m careful though. All the best and hopefully you will be out sailing soon 💪🏻 Cheers 🍻⛵️

It is easy for you to check in because Martinique is DomTom and Norway is Schengen?

[@captainmagic1895]

The cheapest place for clearence is in St. Pierre = FREE

[@SailingwithThomas]
