Sample yacht charter itinerary British Virgin Islands

Yacht Charter Itinerary BVI
Many yachts are currently operating charters in the BVI, despite the protocols that have been imposed due to the pandemic. And for charters, this is something quite extraordinary – clients are enjoying quiet anchorages and snorkel sites unaffected by human pressure. It’s a glorious time to be on a charter in the BVI. 

Crews are a great source of information on testing, entry protocols and more, because they have gone through the process themselves. We have been asking them about: 
– how to create a successful itinerary with existing protocols
– how the BVI Gateway, testing and getting results all work
– what it’s like to sail the BVI with far fewer charter boats on the water

Crews have put together the most wonderful itineraries for clients and made sure they enjoy every moment.
