The North Shore of St. John features many calm bays and beautiful beaches. Some of the world class beaches we may visit are Honeymoon, Hawksnest, Cinnamoon, Maho Bay and Francis Bay. For excellent snorkeling, we visit Waterlemon Cay in Leinster Bay. This area is our first stop for a French style continental breakfast.

Situated slightly northwest of the West End of Tortola, Jost Van Dyke exudes a 'lost in time' feel with undeveloped beaches. We visit famous the Soggy Dollar Bar, located in White Bay with its white powder sand. The bar is named for a patron who swam ashore without putting his money in a waterproof kit. For beautiful, picture-postcard beaches, we visit Sandy Cay or Sandy Spit.

Cruise the North Shore on calm days and, during the winter migration, keep an eye out for grey and humpback whales. Monkey Point, located at the south end of Guana Island is renowned for its snorkeling.

Norman island offers two great snorkeling experiences: The Caves and The Indians. The Caves of Norman Island are the legendary location of buried pirate treasure. Rising from the water, their cavernous mouths invite the adventurous snorkeler to explore walls encrusted with cup corals and brilliantly colored sponges. The reduced lighting in the caves brings out some colors ordinarily seen only at night. The Indians are pinnacle rock formations off Pelican Island. Their name derives from their similarity to the feathers of an Indian bonnet. This not-to-be-missed site is rich with sea-life, including a shallow “fish bowl” where swirling clouds of silver bait fish are pursued by jacks and snappers.

The Peter Island Resort is a British Virgin Island retreat that surrounds guests in beauty and luxury. The resort offers a day spa, boutique and delicious island cuisine.

On custom charters, we may cruise all the way to the Baths on the southern tip of Virgin Gorda. Giant granite boulders lean against each other while clear pools of water flow through and beneath. Light angles in from above, creating one of the Caribbean's most stunning spectacles of natural beauty. Explore the labyrinth formed by the boulders, and then enjoy a swim or snorkel in crystal clear water at one of the pocket beaches framed by the boulders.
