Sailing in St. John

St. John is an ideal location for sailing and there are many options to choose from, ranging from sailing lessons in open catamarans, to a full range of skippered and crewed vessels from 30 to more than 55 feet for day or overnight cruises. Included are options to sail to the BVI, St. Croix or tour the many bays around St. John. With predominant trade winds year round, you're sure to have a spirited adventure in the Virgin Islands when traveling by wind power.

Options will typically include half day or full day and sunset cruises and will typically include food and drink. Prices vary by boat length and time of year and the easiest way to identify a reliable captain is to evaluate travel web sites such as Trip Advisor to learn from the experiences that others have had with charter services. Look for experienced, USCG certified captains and charters that fit with your size group, interests ( such and eco touring versus sightseeing, overnight versus day sail, range of destination options).
