Norman Island
On day three of your charter vacation, you can head to the popular Norman Island which is famed for being the inspiration behind the classic novel Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson.
The pirate theme remains an attraction of this island with the legendary floating bar. Converted from a ship and moored in the bay, Willy T’s is a bar and restaurant with a huge novelty factor that can’t be missed.
After a floating lunch, it’s time to rejoin the waters as your crew gets you as close as possible to the dive site known as The Caves. The name is exactly what you can expect to see, a group of caves. Located at Treasure Point, the three coves are immensely popular with diving enthusiasts and you can expect to see large numbers of marine specimens. Visit all three caves if you have time then dry off on the warm sandy beach before happy hour at Willy T’s.
- Day 4
Peter Island
Head towards Great Harbour at Peter Island in the early morning as anchorages can get pretty busy as many charters like to stop off here. Perhaps you could watch the sunrise or soak up the spectacular views from the sundeck on your luxury yacht charter.
Take your time on a paddle boat or fly around the bay on a jet ski before once again visiting the underwater scene. Your diving time at Peter Island shouldn’t be rushed as you need to keep your eyes peeled. If you are very lucky you may be able to see some green sea turtles here, get your underwater camera ready. In the afternoon, guests can cruise around Deadman’s Bay to enjoy some well-deserved relaxation on the beach.
- Day 5
Virgin Gorda
Cruise to the southern end of the island to discover some of the most beautiful landscapes across the Virgin Islands.
Spend your morning at the baths, a place of natural beauty and exploration. Large boulders have formed interesting rock formations which in turn created rockpools. Perfect for exploring and seeking out interesting small marine life that lives there, this activity is perfect for nature and adventure enthusiasts alike. In the afternoon, your crew will next escort you to the North Sound of Virgin Gorda and the Bitter End Yacht Club where you can climb ashore to mingle with other luxury charter yacht enthusiasts and use the quality amenities for a temporary change of scenery.
The beaches on Virgin Gorda are particularly beautiful so make the most of some tanning time before heading to the Saba Rock Resort for a high-quality dinner to round your day off perfectly.

Jost Van Dyke
