Detailed itinerary

This is our most popular daysail due to the calmest sailing,
the most snorkeling, and the most time at each stop.
This is also our best itinerary for kids!
This part of the BVI has so many unique options but we try to always visit the Caves and the Indians, as well as (at least) one other stop.
You might even find some lost Pirate tressure!
