Are you on vacation in the USVI and thinking about heading to the neighboring BVI to explore for the day, but aren’t sure where to go? A BVI day boat charter is such a fun way to spend a day (or two!) of your USVI vacation, and we highly recommend it. The British Virgin Islands, while a separate territory from the US Virgin Islands, are nearby enough to visit within a day.


Here on our website, we have an array of day boat charter trips to choose from. You can select a boat to meet your needs from a wide range of boat sizes and amenities. All of the boat charters are captained, so you can safely explore the local waters with an expert and not have to worry about piloting the boat yourself. The best part? When you charter your own boat for the day, you can customize your itinerary and hit up the top stops on your must-see list.
