When to Go

Our base in the British Virgin Islands is open from mid-October through early August. The high season runs from mid-December through mid-April. Humidity in the British Virgin Islands is typically low, due to year-round trade winds.

Local Considerations

Guests who sail in the BVI will pay a cruising tax of $6 per person per day. The cruising tax must be paid before departure, and to expedite the cruising permits before check-in, we collect it together with your final charter balance. Should you wish to make adjustments, please contact your charter specialist.

The currency in the BVI is the US Dollar.
