Join us for eight wonderful days of sun, sand and sailing in the Caribbean! Your dream trip begins with a flight to beautiful Tortola, center of the British Virgin Islands or St. Thomas, where you will take a water taxi to Tortola.
The next morning (by noon) sail away aboard for eight days and seven nights through the exquisite British Virgin Islands. You’ll visit North Gorda Sound and the world-famous Baths on Virgin Gorda, Sandy Cay, Green Cay, Jost Van Dyke, the incomparable wreck of the Rhone, and the inspiration for Treasure Island, Norman Island, including the Treasure caves. Fully relaxed and a better sailor, fly home or stay in the BVI or USVI for more fun! (Mike can make suggestions!)

DESTINATION:
Sailing experts have declared the British Virgin Islands the finest sailing and cruising area in the world. And winter (January to March) is the best time to be there! Reliable trade winds average 15-20 knots from the East. Seas are small due to the protection from over forty islands. Daytime high temperatures in January average 82°F, and nighttime lows average 71°F while the water averages 82°F. The British Virgin Islands have over forty anchorages: many within a few hours sail of each other. Beautiful white sand beaches, turquoise, crystal clear water and great snorkeling/scuba complete the ingredients for paradise. This is the perfect destination if you like PROTECTED WATERS, GOOD WINDS, and SHORT DISTANCE BETWEEN ANCHORAGES.
ACTIVITIES: The possibilities are endless! Along with the continuous excellent sailing and navigation instruction provided by Mike and his staff, some time will be set aside for vacation type activities—sunbathing, swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, reading, relaxing, hiking, informal racing or just having fun!
