Sample
7 Day Itinerary in the British Virgin
Islands
Your captain will put together a provisional
itinerary based on the type of activities
you want to do. This is, of course, completely
flexible depending on your wishes and
the weather/sea conditions.
There
are many options, but below is a sample
itinerary:
Day 1 Midday.
Step aboard your crewed yacht and enjoy
a cold drink while your captain gives
you a briefing about the yacht, its safety
features and discusses the itinerary with
you.
The
crew will cast off for a spectacular sail
across the Sir Frances Drake channel and
head towards the famous pirate coves and
Willy T at Norman Island where lunch will
be served. After lunch, visit The Indians
for a snorkel and then on to the Caves.
Stunning coral and hundreds of beautiful
fish will make this a spectacular experience.
Round
off the day with Captain’s cocktails and
hors-d’oeuvres followed by a gourmet dinner
served under the stars.
Day
2
After a restful night, and perhaps an
early morning dip, your chef will serve
breakfast before you set sail for your
next destination. A short sail to Deadman’s
Bay on Peter Island and time for a hike
ashore at this exclusive resort and then
time for a spin on the wakeboard. After
lunch it’s time to hoist the sails and
head to the famous Wreck of the Rhone
for a snorkel before heading off to your
evening anchorage at Manchioneel Bay,
Cooper Island.
Day 3
Today
it’s off to the famous Baths on Virgin
Gorda, one of the must see places in the
BVI. Secluded beaches and giant boulders
are what makes this stop so special. After
lunch set sail again for your evening
stop at North Sound, home of the Bitter
End Yacht Club. Here you can go ashore
for a walk, indulge in a little shopping
or just relax on the yacht.
Day
3
Now you have your sea-legs it’s time to
set sail to Anegada, watching out for
dolphins and whales on the way. Anegada
has miles of deserted, sandy beaches and
offers great bone-fishing as well as being
an ideal spot for windsurfing. After lunch
take a taxi to Loblolly Bay for an unforgettable
snorkelling experience.
If you’re only going to eat ashore once,
make Anegada the island you choose. Take
a taxi past the Pink Flamingoes to Cow
Wreck Beach Bar for the most amazing atmosphere
and delicious, freshly caught lobster.
Day
4
An early start and it’s off to the secluded
anchorage of Cam Bay on Great Camanoe,
with its abundance of turtles and conch.
Take a whizz on the doughnut and then
after lunch its just a short motor round
the corner to Marina Cay. This is a tiny
island with a Pusser’s store and beach
bar which frequently has live music.
Day
5
Set sail for Sandy Cay, drop anchor and
have a swim in the beautiful waters that
surround this beautiful, sandy Island.
After lunch sail off to Jost Van Dyke,
anchor at White Bay, swim ashore and have
a cocktail at the legendary Soggy Dollar.
Or if you’re feeling energetic, take a
hike to the top of the island. If you’re
in the mood for entertainment, your crew
will be happy to take you to the famous
Foxy’s in Great Harbour where you will
enjoy an evening of music and entertainment
by the great man himself.
Day

Say good morning to the sea turtles, enjoy
a hearty breakfast and then it’s off to
Sopers Hole, West End, Tortola. Here you

therapy, or just to check out the quaint
buildings at the marina.
After
lunch you will enjoy an afternoon sail
up the Sir Francis Drake Channel towards
Little Harbour, Peter Island where your
captain will crack open the toy cupboard
and you can spend the afternoon trying
out wakeboarding, tubing or any of the
other toys the yacht has to offer.
Day

A relaxing morning (or maybe more skiing?)
then sail to Salt Island and take a hike
to the salt ponds.
Then

Bay, home to several turtles. Take a walk
ashore and be sure to visit Aragorn’s
art studio.

After an early morning swim and a hearty
breakfast it’s sadly time to pack your
bags and head back to Village Cay Marina
(or if you prefer, your crew will take
you for a sail before returning to Trellis

the five minute walk to the aiport.
Then it’s time to fly over the islands
and head home, feeling relaxed, envirgorated
and with a huge smile on your face.
