A Typical Week Typical Itinerary for the British Virgin Islands Charter itineraries vary from vessel to vessel, depending upon the time of year, and depending on the type of cruise you book. But you can be certain that the experienced staff at Ship To Shore will help you find a charter that is perfect for you. Now, for a real sense of what your Ship To Shore Yacht adventure will be like, let us take you away to the beautiful British Virgin Islands. Away from the cold, away from city pressures, away on an adventure... Renowned for sheltered sailing and excellent weather all year 'round, the seas around the British Virgin Islands are considered by many to be the most popular cruising grounds in the world. There is something here for everyone, from the breathtakingly beautiful anchorages, to quaint villages, sophisticated botiques, glamorous restaurant discos. Let's see how your adventure in the British Virgin Islands might go, as seen from the deck of the 55 ft. Catamaran, MILLENNIUM: Day 1: You set sail from Tortola for Norman Island, which was the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island." Who knows? Maybe you'll find some treasure of your own as you snorkel the Caves. From here, it's just a short hop to the Bight and one of the most spectacular sunsets you'll ever see. Day 2: After a scrumptious breakfast, a short sail takes you to the Indians for a delightful snorkel or scuba dive. Following a lunch stop at Peter Island, you head up the Sir Francis Drake Channel to Salt Island. Here you can dive or snorkel the wreck of the RMS Rhone, made famous as one of the settings for the film "The Deep." It also happens to be acclaimed as the best wreck dive in the entire Caribbean. Day 3: Your off to one of the British Virgin Island's most treasures and recognizable place, The Baths. Huge granite boulders litter the beach along the southern tip of Virgin Gorda, framing grottos, pools, and secret passages. Explore on foot or by snorkel, enjoying the mystery of this fabulous place. In the afternoon, you set sail for The North Sound. The protected waters of this favorite playground lend themselves to every water sport imaginable -- wind surfing, waterskiing, kayaking, and even beach volleyball. Day 4: You venture out into Eustatia Sound, where the Atlantic meets the Caribbean. Crystal clear waters await you, teeming with tropical fish and marine life, all for you to explore. Then rendezvous in the evening at The Bitter End for a smooth, cool rum punch while you delight to the sounds of a steel drum band. Day 5: An adventurous sail takes you to Anegada, a flat coral atoll completely surrounded by reef. Hundreds of ships have been wrecked on the hazardous coral reefs surrounding Anegada, creating an underwater paradise for diving and snorkeling. You'll be surrounded by miles of glorious beaches, and feast on the best grilled lobster in the Caribbean. Day 6: Tropical flowers and brightly colored villas will greet you as you sail into Marina Cay. You'll find the diving here at Diamond Reef is some of the best to be found anywhere, and it's perfect for a night dive off the transom. Day 7: Haul up the spinnaker and set sail for Jost Van Dyke, unquestionably the Beach Bar Capital of the Islands. You anchor at Sandy Cay for lunch, then kayak to shore to explore the island, and maybe take a dive at Green Cay. And the nightly entertainment at Foxy's is not to be missed! Day 8: Enjoy the sunrise over the hills of Sopers Hole and take an early morning swim or snorkel before heading back to Tortola. The opportunities for adventure are endless. Your charter cruise is a personal experience. Pure excitement, pure relaxation, or anything in between. Ship To Shore Yacht Charters has many privately-owned yachts available for charter. Each is its own special adventure, but in order for you to select what is best for you, you'll need to make some decisions. The first thing you'll want to think about is how involved you will want to be. Do you picture yourself at the helm with the crew at your command, or would you rather relax on the deck and soak up the sun? You decide.
