Itinerary for a 1 week cruise in the British Virgin Islands
A BVI cruise that offers something for everyone. See the BVI in its full glory!
Themes: Excellent Diving, Excellent Snorkelling, Family, Historic/Ruins, Romantic/Honeymoon, Simple/Line of Sight, Sunset Cruise, Weddings,
Day 1 - Road Town to the Bight, Norman Island
A perfect sail for your first half day, you can snorkel at
the Indians on your way to
Norman Island. When you arrive at the bight, pick up a Mooring ball and have dinner at the
William Thornton (Willy T), a great floating bar and restaurant that will definitely get you in the BVI mood after your long travels.
Day 2 - Norman Island to Cooper Island
Sail to
the Caves and do some spectacular snorkelling and then check out the
Wreck of the Rhone. Continue on to pick up a Mooring buoy at
Cooper IslandDay 3 - Cooper Island to North Sound, Virgin Gorda
The main attraction today is the huge rock formation called the
Baths, on the south western tip of
Virgin Gorda. Moor here to explore the rocks, and then continue on to North Sound, and anchor at the
Bitter End Yacht Club.
Day - Virgin Gorda to Beef Island (or Anegada)
Experienced or aggressive sailors may want to make the trek to
Anegada for unbroken sandy beaches and a great lobster cookout, but if you want a more leisurely sail, just head for
The Dogs for some snorkelling, and then on to
Trellis Bay on Beef Island and drinks/dinner at the
Last Resort or
De Loose Mongoose restaurant
Day 5 - Beef Island to Great Harbour, Jost Van Dyke
Today is a long sail down wind to
Jost Van Dyke, with a stay for lunch at a quintessential deserted tropical island –
Sandy Cay. It’s nice that you will have a relaxing day, because there’s plenty to keep you awake until the wee hours with
Foxys and
Sidney’s Peace and Love in the Harbour!
Day 6 - Jost Van Dyke to Peter’s Island
Head south to
Sopors Hole if you need provisions (and a drink or meal at the famous
Pussers), and then on to Peter’s island for some time on the beach. Stay at whichever of the Harbours suit your taste. Visit, but do not spend the night at Deadman’s bay, as the anchorage does not hold well.
Day 7 - Peter’s Island to Road Town, Tortola
Sadly, all that remains now is a sail up to
Road Town. Check you connection schedule, and give yourself plenty of time to sail and bring your boat back in and get to the ferry or airport!
