The Islands
The British Virgin Islands (BVI) beckon as an archipelago paradise, famed for their idyllic beauty and nautical allure. Comprising over 60 islands and cays, each with its own distinctive charm, the BVI are a treasure trove of exotic flora, sun-soaked shores, and crystalline waters. Blue Horizon sails out of Village Cay Marina (in Tortola).
Renowned for world-class sailing, spectacular diving spots, and luxurious, secluded resorts, these islands offer a tranquil escape for those in search of relaxation and adventure in equal measure. The warm, welcoming culture, coupled with the islands' natural splendor, makes the BVI a premier destination for travelers seeking an exclusive and intimate Caribbean experience.
Things to Do
Chartering Blue Horizon in the British Virgin Islands opens up a sea of possibilities for leisure and adventure.
Glide across the tranquil waters to discover hidden coves, dive into the vibrant underwater world among coral reefs teeming with marine life, or anchor off a secluded beach for a private slice of paradise.
Onboard, bask in the sun on the deck, enjoy al fresco dining with a view, or indulge in a sunset cocktail as the sky transforms around you.
Snorkel and swim around the granite boulder of the iconic Baths of Virgin Gorda, with natural tidal pools and secret grottos.
Anchor near the sugary sands of White Bay in Jost Van Dyke to sip on the Painkiller cocktail at the Soggy Dollar Bar, the birthplace of the infamous tropical concoction.
Navigate to Norman Island, rumored to be the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island," and dive into the hidden wonders beneath The Caves.
As the evening settles, retreat to the world-renowned Foxy's for a beachfront barbecue under the stars.
With each new sunrise, a day of exploration awaits, from the upscale allure of Scrub Island to the laid-back rhythms of Anegada, where flamingos color the skyline.
