Desde las aguas tranquilas de North Sound hasta las dramáticas rocas de The Baths, las Islas Vírgenes Británicas tienen docenas de bahías protegidas. Su capitán adaptará el plan de cada día según el viento, el clima y lo que su grupo quiera hacer.
Soggy Dollar, Foxy's, Cooper Island Beach Club, Willy T — las Islas Vírgenes Británicas tienen más bares de playa icónicos por kilómetro cuadrado que cualquier lugar del Caribe. Nade hasta la orilla, pida un Painkiller y descubra por qué todos regresan.
The Indians, las cuevas de Norman Island, el naufragio del RMS Rhone — las Islas Vírgenes Británicas albergan algunos de los mejores sitios de snorkel y buceo del Caribe. Su tripulación tendrá el equipo listo y sabrá exactamente a dónde ir.

When to go, what it costs, and how to get there — the practical answers buyers ask before booking a British Virgin Islands crewed yacht charter.
Los mejores meses para un viaje en catamarán en las Islas Vírgenes Británicas — y una de las grandes razones por las que las Islas Vírgenes Británicas son el destino de alquiler de yate más popular del mundo. Los vientos alisios soplan consistentemente del este a 15–20 nudos, la humedad es baja y la lluvia es rara. A diferencia de las Bahamas, las Islas Vírgenes Británicas no reciben frentes fríos en invierno — solo condiciones de navegación constantes y confiables día tras día. Navidad y Año Nuevo se reservan con más de 12 meses de anticipación. Febrero a abril es el punto ideal: el mismo clima perfecto, mejor disponibilidad.
Menos barcos en el agua, tarifas más bajas y el clima sigue siendo excelente. Las temperaturas del agua son más cálidas, los vientos son más ligeros y tendrá las bahías para usted solo. Noviembre es especialmente bueno — condiciones de temporada alta a precios de temporada intermedia.
Temporada de huracanes. La mayoría de los yates con tripulación dejan las Islas Vírgenes Británicas durante estos meses. Si tiene flexibilidad y está dispuesto a monitorear el clima, algunos yates permanecen disponibles a las tarifas más bajas del año — pero no es para todos.
Few cruising grounds in the world are as forgiving as the BVI. The islands sit in a protected line through the Sir Francis Drake Channel, so crossings between anchorages are short — most legs are one to two hours under steady 15-to-20-knot trade winds, never an open-ocean passage.
Trade winds run east-northeast December through April, then ease through summer. Protected anchorages stay calm in normal conditions; snorkeling visibility runs 50–60 feet at The Indians, The Caves, and the Dogs.
Hurricane season is officially June through November, with historical risk concentrated mid-August to mid-October — most operators pause briefly during that window. The shoulder months of May and November deliver the most underrated weather-to-crowd ratio of the year.
$25,000–$150,000 per week
Los viajes todo incluido con tripulación en catamarán en las Islas Vírgenes Británicas comienzan alrededor de $25,000 por semana para hasta 6 huéspedes y alrededor de $30,000 para hasta 8 huéspedes. Esa tarifa cubre su yate, tripulación, todas las comidas y bebidas, combustible y juguetes acuáticos. Los alquileres de yate de Navidad y Año Nuevo cuestan un 15–20% más y se reservan con más de 12 meses de anticipación.
