This is Where You Start

Most larger yachts are based in Yacht Haven in the US Virgin Islands. Fly into St. Thomas International Airport (many flight connections from major US Cities) and step directly onboard.

Within a few hours of cruising, you will be in the British Virgin Islands, with a possible lunch stop at Trunk Bay—ranked one of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean!

This is Where You Go

the British Virgin Islands

A luxury yacht allows guests to cover longer distances quickly, fitting more into their yacht charter itineraries and reaching remote spots like Anegada, which smaller boats often skip on a one-week itinerary.

(A typical Sunreef catamaran cruises at 8 to 12 knots; a larger motor yacht typically does around 15 to 20 knots, with some yachts able to reach 30+ knots. -Think about how much more you can see!

We suggest this 7-Day Itinerary, making an anti-clockwise loop around the whole of the British Virgin Islands archipelago, stopping at iconic locations like Norman Island, Peter Island, Spanish Town, Mountain Point, North Sound, Anegada, and Jost Van Dyke.

This is What You Can Expect

On a private yacht charter, you can expect every detail to be taken care of: With a highly professional crew and a personal chef, your days at sea are filled with gourmet meals, enjoying the privacy of your own private luxury yacht, and having fun with various water toys, all while visiting the British Virgin Islands’ best locations!

We provide a diverse selection of luxury yachts perfect for romantic escapes, family vacations, or celebratory honeymoons. We’re also delighted to organize historical and cultural tours in the various locales you’ll visit, offering you a deeper connection to the region.

MARKET TRENDS

BVI Luxury Yachts on the Rise

  • Rise of luxury Motor Yachts (Superyachts): The previously catamaran-dominated BVI is now seeing an increase in motor yachts, with many coming over from St Thomas Yacht Haven Grande Marina.
  • Larger, more Luxurious Catamarans: In the last 2 decades alone, Catamarans have evolved significantly, growing from around 40 feet in the year 2000 to over 70 feet in the 2020s.
  • Growing Popularity of Powercats in the BVI: Power catamarans, known for their comfort and fuel efficiency, have transitioned from a rarity to a common sight across the British Virgin Islands, appearing at nearly every anchorage.
  • Expansion of Yacht and Villa Combos: The integration of yacht charters with exclusive villa stays is becoming more popular. This combination offers an extensive, seamless luxury experience that spans both the sea and the shore.
  • A focus on improving superyacht infrastructures: Superyachts contribute to the BVI’s economic diversification by attracting high-net-worth individuals, offering a higher dollar value per visit.

BVI HIGHLIGHTS

Things to Do in the British Virgin Islands

Eat Fresh Sea Food at Anegada Island

Indulge in local culinary delights like native lobster at the Reef Hotel and conch at Big Bamboo in Loblolly Bay. A luxury motor yacht charter is ideal for reaching this remote destination. But Anegada is not just a place to eat delicious local food, it is also home to the world’s third-largest barrier reef. This island offers unique flora and fauna, including flamingos and salt ponds.

Dive at Rhone Marine Park

Located right between Peter Island and Salt Island in the Southern British Virgin Islands, this iconic shipwreck is one of the world’s premier dive sites. The RMS Rhone, a British mail steamer, sank in 1867 during a hurricane, creating a captivating underwater scene with intact structures and marine life.

Drink at the Jost Van Dyke Beach Clubs

Jost Van Dyke, the BVI’s smallest Island, is renowned for its energetic atmosphere around White Bay and Great Harbour. Visit the world-famous beach bars, Foxy’s and Ivan’s, and swim to the Soggy Dollar Bar for a painkiller cocktail and relax at Hendo’s Hideout. The weekends here are a blast!

Swim at the Virgin Gorda Baths National Park

Virgin Gorda, the third largest island in the British Virgin Islands, is known for its beautiful white sands and the rock pools of The Baths National Park.
