BOATS: The Virgin Islands offer the finest sailing, boating, and island exploring in the world. Whatever else you do on your vacation, we strongly recommend that you include a day of boating and island adventure; it's absolutely the best. We have listed our favorite boats whose captains are legendary sailors, local guides and story tellers as well as excellent hosts and entertainers. Our guests sing the highest praises for these salty sea captains, as well as for the secluded coves and island hideaways that can only be reached by boat. Our guests often tell us that this is like spending an ideal day in paradise with an old friend, and we agree -- boating in the Virgin Islands is almost heaven.
