Explore Sailing Voyages in United States Virgin Islands 🇻🇮

We did a short sail to Christmas Cove where the had a wrecked boat on the shore, a fixer upper boat on anchor, and other visitors partying. Missy practiced anchoring and we settled into spend the day here. Jeff swam to the reef and got some good photos of sea life. Missy and Sara swam around the boat. Nathan caught up on his sleep.

We ended the week with a chill downwind sail back to the marina to return the boat. Our last dinner was on the boat to use up all our leftovers, and it was surprisingly good.

At Jost Van Dyke we hiked to the Bubbling Pool which was like a natural hot tub. Very cool with the tide rushing in with cooler water. We ate at a shack on the beach called Foxy’s Taboo which is the quintessential restaurant in the middle of nowhere. Then sailed to the US to check on but because the app rejected us we had to make a mad dash into Cruz Bay to pass customs in person. We then explored a bit before heading to Lovango for dinner. When we got there they were having their last day before closing bash, and we were able to crash the party and had an amazing buffet meal.

Today stared by a quick power run to the BVI where we learned to use the yellow quarantine flag and check in through customs. After that, the remainder of the day was intense training with lots of tacking upwind. Jeff and Missy got a lot of time working the sails and refining the maneuver. We ended at the Pirates Bight restaurant and sampled the local dish Chicken Roti which is like an Indian curry burrito, very delicious.
