How to Get to the BVI's

It's easy to get to some of the best sailing in the world!

 

There are three main ways to get to the BVI:

 

1. Via St. Thomas (Cyril King International Airport – STT)

This is the most common route. From St. Thomas, catch a ferry to Road Town or Soper’s Hole on Tortola. The ferry terminal is just a 10-minute taxi ride from the airport. Keep in mind that the last ferry usually departs between 4:00–5:00 PM, so plan your arrival accordingly. SWA begins service to STT soon! 

 

2. Private Water Taxi from St. Thomas

For more flexibility, hire a private water taxi to take you and your crew directly to the BVI. While slightly more expensive, private taxis can often accommodate your schedule better than the public ferries.

 

3. Direct to Tortola 

Fly directly into Terrance B. Lettsome International Airport (EIS) on American Airlines via Miami, from (SJU) San Juan Puerto Rico, on Cape Air or InterCaribbean, or from STT and then take a taxi to Nanny Cay or your Hotel.      

 

We use "Big Mike" on Tortola for our transportation.  He's inexpensive and very dependable. WhatsApp 1-284-496-0959
