The
protected waters of the Sir Francis Drake Channel in the northeast
Caribbean Sea are the perfect setting for a sailing vacation in
the
British Virgin Islands.

tranquil turquoise waters lapping
softly against the hull of your yacht, while
a rainbow of tropical fish dart around below.
In the near distance white-sand beaches
fringed with towering palm trees and dotted
with enticing beach bars line some of
the island's coastline.
Others
remain uninhabited and waiting to
be explored. With its crystal clear waters,
picture-perfect beaches, scenic anchorages
and well-equipped marinas, the British Virgin Islands are an ideal
sailing destination for
every level of sailor.
Easy
deep-water island-hops, consistent trade winds, line-of-sight navigation
and numerous anchorages make this a sailors paradise. |

British Virgin Islands
as
the most popular yacht charter destination
in the Caribbean with good reason. The sailing conditions make this
a destination for reasonably experienced sailors and there is with
a good
mix of island hopping and exciting blue water cruising that should

St.
Maarten itself is an intriguing island that is divided between its
Dutch and French sides – there’s an easy sophistication here that
results
from an effortless melding combination of
the best of both Caribbean and European food
and culture and cuisine.

beautiful islands in the Eastern Caribbean and enjoy spectacular
diving and snorkeling along the way |
