Island hop in BVI - private charter or ferry
astrebor
Yesterday at 05:48 PM
I am booking a trip for my family of 4 to USVI and BVI in August. Flying in to STT and staying 5-6 days somewhere near RedHook. Looking to do 5 more days in BVI.
Options are:
1) Ferry to Tortola and base ourselves there somewhere in town, ferry to other islands on day trips; or
2) hire a skippered private charter for 4-5 day trip around BVI before flying out of EIS back home.
I am struggling to find a private charter for option 2. I learned most charter boats (Dream Yacht, Moorings) leave the area in August and the bases close down. Are there any boat captains on this forum who would like to take us on and show us around BVI? Or know someone who can?
Thanks!

We depart tomorrow and are thinking about doing carry on luggage only. We want to bring back some local rum. Does anyone know if there is a place to purchase it passed security in SXM?

Cruise ending at SXM

Has anyone here taken a cruise that ended in Phillipsburg or heard of that experience? Silverseas offers a cruise that starts in Barbados and ends on SXM. In all the many years that I have been reading this forum, I don't recall hearing of people doing this.

Lunch at Be Cool Before the marina fire
Dr Phil SXM
04/23/2025 01:29 PM
I had a great lunch with friends at Be Cool at Marina Royale in Marigot a few days before the fire.
Enjoyed muscles in a mushroom cream sauce with crispy fries.
Fortunately Be Cool and one of my other favourite restaurants Tropicana we’re not in the area of the fire.
I took a photo of the menu on the walkway. Hopefully it’s readable.
I also happened to take a picture of the area where the fire took place before the fire a few days later.

Parking in Miami
Carol_Hill
04/22/2025 04:44 PM
Update on this subject. For several years we have parked at Miami Park N Fly, now called The Parking Spot. A month or so ago, I was totally blown away, when they wanted $23 a day, even if you are a member of their parking club. It was going to be way over $300 for our 10 days in June. I started looking for hotels and didn't really find anything I wanted. I didn't book anything, until just recently, when I got an email from them. Apparently, their business model now is to run sales, and their regular prices are out of sight. If you a member of their club, you get emails about the sales. They are running a sale now for the summer, with prices around $12-$15 a day. Apparently the sale ends tomorrow, for anyone who needs to book.
