With steady trade winds, calm currents, protected bays and pirate-ship bars, the British Virgin Islands is one of the world’s sailing hot spots and, if we had our way, where we’d spend every winter! \u00a0With so many Tortola boat charters<\/a><\/strong> to choose from, you’ll keep on coming back year after year.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are top things to do and see in the BVI:<\/p>\n

Walking Tour of Sage Mountain National Park:<\/strong> \u00a0Enjoy a guided walking tour of the national park, boasting the highest point in the Virgin Islands. \u00a0A bird lover’s paradise with many species inhabiting the area and fantastic views across the seas.<\/p>\n

Callwood Rum Distillery:<\/strong> \u00a0The oldest continuously operated distillery in the Eastern Caribbean. \u00a0For more than 300 years the Callwood family has been producing Arundel rum. There’s a small store where you can purchase rum to drink on board like a true pirate.<\/p>\n

The Baths:<\/strong> \u00a0This collection of sky-high boulders is the BVI’s most popular tourist attraction. \u00a0The rocks are volcanic lava leftovers from up to 70 millions years ago and form a series of grottoes that flood with sea water. \u00a0A unique swimming opportunity.<\/p>\n

White<\/strong> Bay:<\/strong> The clue is in the title. \u00a0Crazy white sand and good time bars – what more does one need?\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Salt Island:<\/strong> \u00a0The RMS Rhone’s final resting place after smashing against the rocks during the 1867 hurricane. \u00a0This is one of the Caribbean’s best wreck dives.<\/p>\n

Anegada:<\/strong> \u00a0Just 12 miles from the other islands but like another planet. \u00a0A flat desert landscape with Flamingos wading in the salt ponds, this is well worth a visit. \u00a0Eating Anegada lobster is a rite of passage and every restaurants has them on the menu, usually grilling them on the beach in a converted oil drum.<\/p>\n

With many boats to choose from, you will be spoilt for choice! \u00a0Our personal\u00a0recommendation\u00a0for a BVI charter<\/a><\/strong> is always a Catamaran\u00a0due to the\u00a0great deck space for sun bathing and a large open cockpit for al fresco dining. This makes Catamarans\u00a0the perfect choice for a destination where outside living is the norm thanks to the stunning surroundings.<\/p>\n

The Lagoon 450<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>is a great choice with 4 double cabins and 4 heads offering comfortable accommodation for up to 8 people. \u00a0The yacht has the added advantage of two forward skipper cabins meaning you can take 10 people on board for those with larger groups.<\/p>\n

The BVI is a magical place to sail.\u00a0With easy deep-water island hops, line-of-sight navigation and plentiful sheltered anchorages it offers the ultimate stress free sailing experience for the novice and ocean racer alike. \u00a0Beautiful white sand beaches and a great selection of laid-back bars and restaurants make the evenings ashore an utter joy.<\/p>\n

Water visibility is 100 -130ft which is ideal for snorkelling with hawksbill turtles, manta rays, eagle rays and trumpet fish to spot. \u00a0It is also a perfect environment for kayaking and paddle boarding.
