Great weather for sailing

With stable temperatures of around 25 and 30 degrees, you know where you are. On the British Virgin Islands, the climate is also called subtropical with pleasant trade winds. At night the temperatures are not too high and therefore pleasant, and it won't rain much on the islands. The hurricane season at the BVI runs from July untill the end of October.

BVI is nominated as one of the most popular sailing locations in the world due to favourable climate!

With the almost always present trade winds, beautiful tropical sun and the possibility of navigating by sight, the British Virgin Islands are an actual dream location for true sailing enthusiasts! With our one-week flotilla, you will discover what the British Virgin Islands have to offer. Beautiful blue water, a breathtakingly colourful reef and, last but not least, the sea turtles. What makes it complete are the pearly white beaches, a cooling drink and the numerous cosy beach bars. Stop dreaming and make it happen, book your flotilla sailing holiday to the BVI with Tubber.

Day 1

Wickhams Cay II

The marina is only a 20-minute drive from the airport, and the base can be found on Wickhams Cay II (Tortola). Once you have arrived at the port, you can first do your shopping, after which you can bring your things on board. Afterwards, acclimatize with a drink, spend your first night on the boat and then get to know your fellow flotilla sailors the next morning.

Day 2

Wickhams Cay II - Peter Island

The warm Caribbean trade winds - they are already there! Today we are going to Peter Island, which is the largest island of the BVI. Here you will find countless beautiful anchorages. Once on foot, there is a welcome party with bbq for the entire flotilla. What a lovely ending after the first day of sailing! Don't forget to enjoy the spectacular view! There are also hiking trails to the highest point of the island (beware of the wild goats :).

Day 3

Peter Island - Leverick Bay

Today we sail along Virgin Gorda (remote granite rocks), definitely worth it! After which the course continues towards Leverick Bay Resort & Marina. For the wind and kite surfing enthusiasts, Leverick Bay is very suitable to take your moment of action here!

Day 4

Leverick Bay - Anegada

Today a 13-mile route is planned, but of course only after a good breakfast. We are going to Anegada today. A unique island created by volcanic rock. The snorkel enthusiast certainly has something to experience here, the beautiful underwater world with coral and limestone. Today there is also time to explore the island. You can go ashore at Setting Point where you can rent a car or scooter. If you want to encounter some rare animals, at Nutmeg Point, you have the opportunity to meet the rare rock iguanas and exotic birds that live on this island. By the way, don't forget to stop by the salt lakes and say goodbye to the flamingos. Tasty decadent, enjoy the speciality of Anegada, lobster tonight!

Day 5

Anegada - Trellis Bay

Next stop - Beef Island. Here you also have the opportunity to do some shopping at the local market.

Day 6

Trellis Bay - Jost Van Dyke

Today we head west. We go on the open water to the beautiful beaches of Jost Van Dyke. This is the smallest of the four islands. There is a pleasant, cosy atmosphere with charming beach bars such as; Foxy's Tamarind Bar and the Soggy Dollar Bar. This island is also suitable for walking trips.

Day 7

Free sailing day / Norman Island

Today you can fill in the day completely yourself. There are still plenty of anchor spots to explore, or if you have an early flight, you can already return to the base. If you still have time, a visit to Norman Island is also an option. The underwater caves and secluded bays make this a perfect place to go snorkelling or diving. Are you looking for a beautiful place to have lunch then we recommend The Indians. Also pay a visit to the Pirate’s Bight Beachbar, which is an indispensable part of your sailing vacation at the BVI.

Day 8

Norman Island - Wickhams Cay II

Unfortunately already the last day of the flotilla, so today we sail back to the base at Wickham's Cay II.
