VIRGIN ISLANDS
A Virgin Islands yacht charter is all about peace and serenity. Sail through crystalline waters that surround this region’s remote islands on a Caribbean crewed charter and enjoy the breathtaking views, endless powdery beaches and secluded palm-fringed anchorages that make the Virgin Islands a sailor’s delight. The constant breeze, courtesy of the tradewinds, makes for spectacular windsurfing or kite-boarding and some of the best snorkelling and diving in the world are easily reached just below your yacht.
Why Go: The natural beauty, the scent of frangipani and the quiet protected anchorages are a few of the reasons why you should choose a Virgin Islands yacht charter. On a Caribbean crewed charter savor the salty beach bars and enjoy the short cruising distances between each island which make the Virgin Islands an excellent choice for first time charterers or even the most experienced sailors.
