Spanish Virgin Islands: A Discreet, Year-Round Superyacht Charter Destination

Discover the Spanish Virgin Islands (SVIs)-a rare Caribbean gem offering a blend of unspoiled natural beauty, tranquil anchorages, and exclusive luxury. Perfect for superyacht charters from 60 to 300 feet, the SVIs are a sophisticated alternative to more crowded destinations, providing privacy, adventure, and seamless access to the wider Caribbean yachting scene.

 

Distinctive Sailing Grounds & Major Destinations

The Spanish Virgin Islands, located just east of Puerto Rico and west of the US and British Virgin Islands, are centered around:

Culebra

Renowned for Flamenco Beach, one of the Caribbean’s top beaches, and vibrant snorkeling at Tamarindo Beach. Dewey, the island’s main town, offers charming local eateries and laid-back bars.

Culebrita

 A small, uninhabited cay famed for its historic lighthouse, natural tidal pools, and pristine white-sand beaches. Popular for secluded picnics and wildlife viewing.

Vieques

Home to Mosquito Bay, the world’s brightest bioluminescent bay, and wild, undeveloped beaches like Playa Caracas and Playa La Chiva. Esperanza and Isabel Segunda are the main towns, offering authentic dining and a relaxed nightlife.

Louis Peña and Other Cays

These smaller islands and cays provide secluded anchorages, excellent snorkeling, and a true sense of escape.

Vieques National Wildlife Refuge: Protects vast stretches of coastline and interior, ideal for eco-tours, hiking, and birdwatching.

Safety Notice & Yacht Availability

While the Spanish Virgin Islands are generally considered safe and welcoming, travelers should be aware of:

  • Rising Crime in the Caribbean: There has been an increase in reported crimes against yachts region-wide, including theft and occasional violent incidents. Most issues are opportunistic and can be mitigated by following best security practices and staying informed via resources like the Caribbean Safety and Security Net.
  • Insurance Limitations: Some luxury yachts may have restricted insurance coverage for certain Caribbean areas, resulting in a more limited selection of available charter vessels at times. Advance planning and consultation with our team are advised.
  • Hurricane Season: The region is subject to hurricanes from June to November. Charters during this period should have flexible itineraries and contingency plans.
