Stop Following the Crowd: How to Design a Fully Customizable Virgin Islands Charter Day
Why Customization is the Only Luxury That Matters in the VI
When you book a luxury vacation, the last thing you want is a rigid schedule. The British and U.S. Virgin Islands offer endless possibilities—from the turquoise waters of St. John’s National Park to the iconic granite boulders of The Baths in Virgin Gorda—but a one-size-fits-all itinerary forces you to miss out on what matters most to your group.
At Let’s Play Virgin Islands, we believe your charter should be as unique as your vacation. Our Captain-included day trips are built from the ground up to reflect your style, pace, and passions.
Three Ways Your Day Charter Becomes Your Adventure with Let’s Play VI
Our service moves beyond simple drop-offs. We are experienced guides who help you craft a day that is perfect for your group.
1. Activity Customization: Beyond Snorkeling
Many charters provide basic snorkel gear, but what if you want more? As one of the only luxury day charter companies offering in-depth water sports, we can completely tailor your activities to your experience level.
For the thrill-seeker, we can dedicate the day to finding the best kiteboarding spots near Great Thatch Island or providing guided instruction. For the deep diver, our Captain is a PADI-certified dive expert, allowing us to schedule a dedicated scuba dive at a top wreck site like the Rhone or at a specific underwater cave. If you prefer to stay on the surface, we’ll focus entirely on visiting the most famous beach bars, like the Soggy Dollar on Jost Van Dyke, and secluded beaches with zero crowds.
2. Itinerary Customization: USVI or BVI, Your Choice
You are not locked into one island chain. We offer seamless transitions between the two, allowing you to combine destinations based on your priority.
For those focused on BVI Highlights, we can start at The Baths in Virgin Gorda, pause for lunch at Saba Rock, and end with sunset drinks at Jost Van Dyke. This is the perfect choice for first-time visitors looking to check off the most famous bucket-list items.
If you prefer USVI Seclusion, we’ll anchor at Waterlemon Cay for a guided snorkel, perhaps include a hike to the Annaberg Ruins on St. John, and grab lunch at the popular floating taco bar, Lime Out. This option is ideal for groups seeking natural beauty, historical sites, and less time clearing international customs.
(Note: All BVI trips require clearing customs and incur additional fees for fuel and entry, which your captain will manage for a smooth day.)
3. The Pace of Luxury: Your Group, Your Tempo
A set itinerary rushes you. A customized charter gives you the freedom to linger.
Did you find the perfect cove at Cistern Point and want to stay an extra hour? Done. Is the group ready to head back early for a dinner reservation? We adjust.
Our Captain’s priority is your satisfaction and safety, meaning the pace is dictated by the enjoyment and comfort of your private party, not a rigid clock or another group’s schedule.
