Activities in the British Virgin Islands

Sailing

The BVI's offer one of the most spectacular cruising grounds in the world. With reliable trade winds, short easy passages and perfect anchorages, the region is a mecca for yachtsmen. There are numerous yachts available for charter, by the day or by the week, either bareboat (ie without crew) or fully catered and crewed.

BVI Spring Regatta

This annual event is firmly established in the Caribbean Yachting Calendar. The BVI's are undoubtedly one of the best cruising grounds in the world and the prospect of a little competition and accompanying apres sailing parties, create the perfect ingredients for a superb regatta. There is plenty of scope for bareboats to join in the fun.

Diving and Snorkelling

Diving and snorkelling are superb off the many reefs and cays and there are over 100 recognised dive sites. Most hotels and charter yachts have snorkel equipment available for hire, but if you are keen to make the most of the superb snorkelling, we recommend that you take your own equipment. There are numerous dive operators, many of which will rendezvous with you at your yacht or hotel.
