After a safety briefing and yacht orientation from your crew, you will leave the dock for Cinnamon Bay on St. John. After lunch onboard Snorkel the nearby reefs before taking a leisurely sail to Maho Bay, St. John. Here you can enjoy watching the turtles come up for air, walk on the beach, or paddle board around the bay. Enjoy a memorable sunset while sipping on a Captains Cocktail and Chef’s appetizers. The perfect way to unwind after traveling to paradise.

WATERLEMON CAY, ST. JOHN

Enjoy a pleasant breakfast, before your Captain takes you over to Mary’s Point or Whistling Cay for a guided snorkel tour. Learn about the coral reef ecosystem and fish/coral identification. Return to your yacht for a lovely lunch before a short sail up the channel to Waterlemon Cay, St John. Here there is a nice shore-side trail to the Annaberg Ruins where you can enjoy a historical tour of the sugar plantation. You can also choose a shorter walk up to Murphy’s Mansion to experience amazing views over the bay. Nearby the mooring field you will have an opportunity to kayak, paddleboard, snorkel, or dive around the Cay. For the fishermen in your group, there are salt flats for bone-fishing or fly-fishing. 

DAY 3

CORAL BAY, ST JOHN.

Other options include snorkeling at Booby Rock, a SCUBA dive, or take a hike on Ram Head Trail for an Epic sunset view. 

DAY 4 and 5

St. Croix

After an early breakfast, you can decide whether to stay in the St Thomas area or enjoy sailing a few hours South to St. Croix. (This is an option at your discretion and may take 4-5 hrs)

If you are interested in a longer beam reach sail then St. Croix is a great diversion from the beaten track. Sailing to the largest island in the Virgin Islands allows you to do plenty of fishing along the way.

Day 1 St. Croix

Spend the day at Buck Island which is the most beautiful place in all of the United States Virgin Islands. Established as a National Treasure, Buck Island is a Turtle Hatching location. During June and July, Turtles from all over come here to lay their eggs. The western point is covered in the purest of white sand, with the eastern point having a vibrant barrier reef teaming with fish. As there is no fishing of any kind allowed here, the fish will swim right up to you which is an amazing sight. 

Day 2 St. Croix

Sail the North Shore of St Croix, stopping at Cane Bay for lunch and a swim. There are coral gardens here in about 20 feet of depth, dropping off to hundreds of feet, just a short swim away. This is an amazing wall dive where you will encounter tons of sea life. If anyone in your group is interested in Scuba diving, this and Salt River Canyons are both amazing. 

For the more adventurous, you may wish to rent a jeep and explore the island. Visit the rainforest, drive to the Easternmost point in the USA, try the Buccaneer Golf course for a unique island golfing experience, tour the Danish fort of Christiansvaern, Fort Frederick, Estate Whim, the famous Cruzan Rum factory or Sandy Point Wildlife Refuge at the Westernmost of the Island.

There are also countless more dive sites, hiking trails, and beach bars, etc. we can provide more info on these based on your interest.
