Looking for a yacht charter in the USVI? Dream sailing destinations don’t come much dreamier than the US Virgin Islands. A Caribbean hang out with an American vibe, sailing in the US Virgin Islands, or USVI, is even easier with a Sailo yacht charter.
The US Virgin Islands archipelago consists of three main islands, St John, St Croix and St Thomas.

Neighbouring St John is the least developed of the main islands. So adventurers looking for nature trails and quieter beaches will find ample opportunity to unwind and enjoy the ‘real Caribbean’ vibe. You can also step aboard your USVI boat charter on St John, to explore this stunning island more,
St Croix, the southernmost and largest of the US Virgin Islands, offers a diverse selection of beaches and bays to explore.
Popular with honeymooners, divers and culture seekers, St Croix is more laid back than St Thomas. But don't let that fool you… You’ll still be able to enjoy a fabulous day sailing in the USVI before enjoying a top quality meal and some nightlife at one of the many top quality resorts.
Whatever your vacation style, the USVI’s have it. Culture and history buffs will love exploring the faded colonial glory in Christiansted in St Croix; or the Pirates Treasure Museum in St Thomas.
And of course, you’re never far from an incredible beach or stunning underwater vista to explore. With a Virgin Islands yacht charter, you can enjoy the best of both worlds.
