Your magical Christmas getaway begins as you board your luxury yacht and meet your dedicated crew. After settling in, cruise to the laid-back island of Jost Van Dyke. Spend the afternoon swimming, paddleboarding, or relaxing on the soft sands of White Bay. The kids can build sandy snowmen while the adults sip cocktails in the shallows. That evening, you'll head around to Great Harbour and enjoy a casual dinner onboard or head ashore to experience some local flavor and festive music at Foxy’s, a classic BVI institution.

The crew will prepare a delicious lunch aboard as you anchor near the picturesque coastline. You can either choose to spend the night at Guana or head over to Trellis Bay and Marina Cay.
In the afternoon, sail to Trellis Bay where you’ll anchor for the night. Explore the quirky local art shops and restaurants or simply enjoy beach games and a sunset walk. Your chef may even invite the kids to bake and decorate some Christmas cookies if you'd prefer to spend the afternoon onboard. Dinner is served under the stars on deck - a fresh Caribbean feast.
