If there’s one destination that yacht charter guests rave about again and again, it’s the Virgin Islands.
And once you go, you’ll get why. Let’s dive into what makes the Virgin Islands the top charter destination in the Caribbean.
First off, it’s easy to get to.
You can fly into St. Thomas in the USVI and be on your yacht within hours—no extra flights or complicated travel. If you’re headed to the BVI, it’s a short ferry or water taxi ride away.
Easy Sailing
The islands are close together and protected from the open sea, so sails are short and smooth, perfect for first-time charterers or anyone who doesn’t love long days at sea. You’ll sail for an hour or two, then drop anchor in a new bay with crystal-clear water, white sand beaches, and a whole new vibe.
Sail Into Something New Each Day in the Virgin Islands
One day you’re snorkeling in The Baths on Virgin Gorda, the next you’re paddleboarding around a quiet cove, then dancing barefoot at the legendary Soggy Dollar Bar. Want to hike to a hilltop lookout, eat lobster on the beach, or just float with a drink in your hand? You can do all of that here.
And don’t skip Anegada. It’s a bit farther out, but worth it. You’ll find untouched beaches, wild pink flamingos, and some of the best fresh-caught lobster in the islands. Oh, and if swimming with sea turtles is on your list, the Virgin Islands are one of the best places in the Caribbean to do it. You’ll often spot them casually cruising by the boat or while snorkeling off the beach.
The water is warm year-round, and the steady trade winds make for ideal sailing conditions. Plus, the island hospitality is unmatched. From casual beach bars to upscale resorts, you’ll feel welcome everywhere you go.
The best part: your captain and crew help customize the entire experience. Each morning, you’ll talk about the day’s plan—whether you want to relax, explore, or get active. It’s totally up to you.
So if you’re dreaming of a yacht charter that’s easy, beautiful, and packed with unforgettable moments, the Virgin Islands are calling.
