BVI and US Virgin Island Yacht Charters

The Virgin Islands are well known to those who love to charter a yacht. With the many islands that dot the area, it is especially easy to sail whether you are a novice or a seasoned cruiser.

Depending on what kind of yacht charter you choose in the Virgin Islands, you can experience one or all of these wonderful islands. Many crewed yacht charters have scuba equipment as well as certified dive instructors onboard to show you how to experience Caribbean scuba diving at its best. Have freshly prepared meals on your charter and savor every bite. Charter Captains and Crew usually are very familiar with the area and will show you to the best bars, restaurants, beaches and shopping.

United States Virgin Islands (USVI)

A territory of the United States, the USVI consists of three main islands; St. Johns, St. Croix and the capital St. Thomas. Known as a port for major cruise lines, this area is great for a crewed yacht charter. Day sailing charters are quite common around the USVI. With busy ports such as Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas, you can cruise around this tropical paradise and stop at various shops, restaurants and bars.

St. John the smallest of the three, it is a nature lover’s dream. Dock your charter yacht here for the day and explore this peaceful and serene island. If you love to scuba, this is the place to go in the USVI.

St. Croix is the largest of the USVI and one of richest in history. Those interested will find the island full of European history including archaeological ruins, and museums. Plenty of shopping, lush rainforests and beaches are waiting for you.

British Virgin Islands (BVI)

The British Virgin Islands (commonly referred to as the BVI) are next door to the USVI, yet seem worlds apart. Unlike bustling Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas, BVI’s capital of Road Town is much smaller and less commercial.

The BVI is made up of 60 islands; many of which are so small they are uninhabited. The main islands of the BVI are: Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, Virgin Gorda and Anegada.

A BVI yacht charter is truly something one must experience. The sun shines every day, waters are crystal clear and the trade winds typically blow northeast to southeast between 10-25 knots which allow those new or experienced at sailing to cruise safely around the BVI.

The BVI offers plenty of yachts for charter either crewed or bareboat. If you are looking for a place to kick back and get away from it all, this is the place. Crews can take you to unspoiled territory such as Anegada, or to some of the most well known party places in the world including the world famous Soggy Dollar Bar, Foxys and Bomba Shack to name just a few.

If you want seclusion, have your Captain take your yacht charter to the famous Baths of Virgin Gorda. Exotic pools and grottos formed by giant rocks are amazing for those who scuba or just want an amazing hike.
