Arriving by Air

ARRIVING BY AIR

British Virgin Islands

The main airport in the British Virgin Islands is on Beef Island, which is connected to the main island of Tortola by a bridge.

Beef Island Airport (EIS) is accessible on direct flights to & from Miami with American Airlines.
You can also connect to Beef Island (EIS) via San Juan Airport (SJU) in Puerto Rico or via St. Maarten Airport (SXM) through several different airlines originating in the US, Canada, and Europe.

Alternatively, there is a much smaller regional airport on the island of Virgin Gorda (VIJ). Commercial flights are available between Virgin Gorda Airport (VIJ) and San Juan Airport (SJU) in Puerto Rico via Cape Air. Private air charter options are available via Fly BVI, Island Birds, and Tradewind Aviation.

→ Arriving a day early & need a hotel prior to the start of your yacht charter?

 On Tortola, we recommend you check out Scrub Island Resort or Wyndham’s Lambert Beach Resort. On Virgin Gorda, we recommend you check out Rosewood’s Little Dix Bay or Fischer’s Cove.

ARRIVING BY AIR

US Virgin Islands

To arrive into the US Virgin Islands for your charter, you will use St. Thomas airport (STT).

The water taxis and ferries out of St. Thomas to the British Virgin Islands all leave out of the East End of the island in Red Hook. You will need to catch a taxi from the airport to Red Hook, which is a roughly 30-45 minute drive, depending on the time of day.

→ Arriving a day early & need a hotel prior to the start of your yacht charter?

On St. Thomas, we recommend you check out either Mafolie Hotel, The Westin, The Ritz-Carlton, or The Pink Palm Hotel.

BVI CUSTOMS & IMMIGRATION

Whether you arrive into the British Virgin Islands by sea or by air, you will be required to clear through BVI Customs and Immigration.

You can streamline your arrival process by completing your forms up to 72 hours in advance of your arrival here.

You will need a valid passport, and applicable visa (depending on your country of origin).
For more details, we recommend you visit the BVI’s main tourism website.

WHAT’S ON YOUR YACHT

While all of the privately owned yachts in our fleet are unique in size, style, and capacity, we have curated a luxury charter experience that you can expect on each and every yacht that you charter with us.

Check out photos & videos of our yacht charter experience in action:

A Professionally Trained Crew

Each yacht is fully crewed with a captain and chef/first mate. Depending on the size of the yacht, there may be one additional crew member. Our team of yachting professionals are provided with ongoing position-specific training to help them provide an unparalleled level of service onboard. 

Our teams are known for their warm, friendly demeanors, local knowledge, attention to detail, and their exceptional hospitality.

All-Inclusive Food & Beverages

All of your meals, snacks, and beverages (including alcoholic beverages) are included in your yacht charter rate. Prior to your arrival, our team of yacht consultants will obtain any dietary needs, preferences, or restrictions you may have so that your yacht chef can plan accordingly. 

Your yacht chef will fully provision the yacht for the entirety of your stay onboard with everything you desire. All of your chef-prepared meals will be plated and served on the yacht with lux table scapes and, of course, the surrounding Caribbean blue views. 

Stylishly Appointed Guest Cabins

While the amount of cabins and cabin layout will vary by yacht, every cabin onboard our yachts is tastefully decorated, outfitted for maximum guest comfort, and air-conditioned. 

Most of our guest cabins have ensuite bathrooms attached, which are stocked with environmentally friendly, reef safe toiletries. Some of our larger yachts also feature a spacious master suite layout that includes an elegant lounge area and expanded bathroom. 

Both Indoor & Outdoor Lounge Spaces

The sailing catamarans (and one trimaran) in our yacht fleet are intentionally designed for chartering. They’re all laid out with an array of spacious lounge areas to allow all of the guests onboard to have plenty of room to relax together as a group, or find peaceful moments of solitude when desired. 

Love to be in the water any chance you get? Our yachts also feature large, deluxe floats so you can relax off the stern of the yacht—in the water, yet close enough for your crew to be able to refill your drinks. 

Onboard Entertainment

You will never be bored on the yacht—that is a fact! From board games to beach games to all of the latest & greatest water sports toys, your yacht is stocked with everything you need to maximize your vacation fun. 

While you’ll likely be enjoying everything the British Virgin Islands have to offer, sometimes everyone looks forward to some chill time on the yacht. If you’d like to indulge in a movie night or sports game onboard, many of our yachts feature projection screens to enjoy al fresco on the bow.

Island Hopping

The British Virgin Islands are comprised of 50+ islands and cays. Why would you stay on just one island for your entire vacation when you can sail around the archipelago and explore as many as you can?

On our yacht charters, you have the opportunity to see new areas of the BVI each and every day, all without sacrificing the luxury accommodations you’d find in a hotel or private villa. 

There’s so much to explore in the British Virgin Islands:

Iconic beach bars

World class snorkeling & diving

Underwater wrecks & monuments

Uninhabited cays

Sprawling white sand beaches

Creative, Caribbean-inspired dining

Hiking for all fitness levels

Luxury day spas

Curated boutiques & retail shops

And much, much more!

Group Yachting: Flotillas

If you’re planning a group trip for 10 or more people, a yacht charter flotilla experience is a great choice. A flotilla charter is where a couple or several yachts all island hop in synchronicity so the guests onboard can enjoy a shared vacation experience as a group, while still indulging in all of the amenities of an individual luxury yacht charter.

What types of groups are best suited for a flotilla?

  • Multi-generational family vacations & reunions
  • Corporate incentive trips
  • Wellness retreats (yoga, fitness, & self care)
  • Weddings & milestone birthday celebrations
  • Mastermind events

How does it work?

Our team of yacht consultants will be here to help you plan your flotilla, every step of the way. 
Depending on the number of guests and the relationships between them, we will help you determine the appropriate combination of yachts to meet the needs of your group.
You will all begin your yacht charters from the same place, at the same time. The yacht crews will coordinate the trip’s itinerary and sail together to each new destination. We can also help you organize any group activities, events, and meals on shore that you desire.
