Board a beautifully restored wooden island sloop for a curated sunset sail through the legendary Sir Francis Drake Channel, framed by Tortola, Norman Island, and the Dogs. Watch the BVI light show unfold with a rum cocktail in hand — the most cinematic moment in the Caribbean.
What to expect
You step aboard to the scent of teak and the sound of the mainsail catching the trade winds. The crew hands you a local bush rum punch as Peter Island shrinks behind you and the channel opens up — a postcard of island silhouettes and deep-blue water. As the sun dips below Tortola, the sky cycles through amber, coral, and violet. Canapés of conch fritters and mango salsa circulate on deck. The return sail under the early stars is a moment you will not stop talking about.
Good to know
Sunset departures typically around 4:30–5:00 PM local time — confirm all-aboard with your ship first. The departure point is Road Town Harbour (20-min water taxi from Great Harbour) or by private tender arrangement. Pre-book private charter 3–4 weeks ahead; shared slots fill quickly in high season.
