The event, now in its third year, will take place from 4-9 April and the programme of events planned for the five-day rendevous will begin with a fun race to Cooper Island on Tuesday 5 April, followed by sunset drinks at the Cooper Island Beach Resort.

Various excursions and evening receptions are planned throughout the rest of the event, including a stop at the uninhabited 'picture perfect' island Sandy Cay, and dinner and cocktails at the famous Pussers Landing restaurant on Marina Cay.

The relaxed Round Virgin Gorda race on Saturday 9 April will signal the end of the ClubSwan Caribbean Rendez-vous 2005, and the final prizegiving dinner at Almond Walk will take place that evening.
