Great question about Sandy Split. .... But I wish we had a "sticky post" that reminds people that planning a very specific itinerary is futile. Where to sail and where to spend the night is highly dependent on the weather and sea conditions. Exposed locations such as Sandy Split are even more suseptible to poor conditions and can't be planned in advance.
Not to worry, we plan a "rough" itinerary for provisioning and dining out purposes. Our trip is dynamic based on weather and sea conditions. Also I highly doubt we would anchor overnight in Sandy Spit, far too exposed for our liking.
Our last night we want to moor relatively close to Soper's as we are chartering with Voyage and must return the yacht by 10 am. We do not like returning to Soper's the day before our charter ends as Voyage likes you in by 4:00 pm if you want to be on the dock. To me that is reduces our trip by one day, very anticlimactic.
The last night we prefer a quiet anchorage to enjoy the peace and beauty of the BVIs. Maybe we will switch our nights and opt for Great Harbor first and our last night stay in Diamond Cay which is one of my favorite spots. As it stands with our preliminary itinerary we will end up in JVD area last for roughly 3 nights. This could all change and we start in this area first.
BTW is there anything happening Friday nights in Great Harbor?
Thank you for the tips.
