For a full week, you will live on a yacht and sail in a flotilla (a group of yachts). Each yacht holds 6-10 people and has plenty of luxurious space for the week.
The accommodations are both comfortable and conducive to being social with your fellow sailors. Each day the boats will sail from location to location and meet up for various activities as a group.
Our team ensures that the logistics are handled and you have all the information you need. No prior sailing experience is needed.

Once you arrive in Tortola, you go through BVI's customs/immigration, and will catch a taxi to the Sunsail Base (in Wickham’s Cay Marina II), where we check-in at your boat.
You will meet your captain and your boatmates for the week. Captains will also walk everyone through how things work onboard, so we are ready to leave the next morning.
Throughout the day, we will relax at the pool at the Marina, meet each other and enjoy cocktails as we get ready for the week.

Norman Island is perhaps most famous for being the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson’s novel, Treasure Island. However, Norman Island also has a rich documented history of being the place pirates would hide hidden treasure.
There are a few things to do around Norman Island. If you like snorkeling, you will love “The Caves” which have stunning coral and fish. Norman Island is also the home of the world famous Willie Ts which is now a legendary bar, that looks like a pirate ship, that hosts amazing (and infamous) parties all night long in the bay.

The Baths are Virgin Gorda’s most famous attraction, and we will spend the afternoon there. It will be your favorite stop on the trip.
The baths are enormous boulders scattered across beaches creating an exotic landscape of magical grottos. There is nothing like it in the world.

At its highest point this island measures 8.5m above sea level and is the BVI’s 2nd largest island.
The New York Times has called Anegada one of the top beaches in the Caribbean.
We will moor the yachts at buoys on the south side of the island, as the rest is surrounded by a massive coral reef, making it great for snorkeling or having fun in the water. Then at Cow Wreck Beach, we can have a great time with a delicious Caribbean dinner and party at one of the islands’ favorite beach bars.
