The pleasant, warm weather that Road Town experiences year-round combined with deep, blue water and seasons of brisk trade winds have helped establish it as one of the most popular places for bareboating in the Caribbean. Sailors come from all over the world for the opportunity to charter a sailboat and take in the sights around the beautiful island of Tortola. There are so many idyllic beaches and secluded coves to explore, and boating is the best way to tour them.
In addition to sailing, there are many other delightful water activities to enjoy in Road Town. Motor yachting is another popular way to get the most out of the island experience, as is deep sea fishing and kayaking. Parasailing, windsurfing, kiteboarding, paddle boarding, and snorkeling are also highly favored by locals and visiting boaters alike.
Road Town is a stunning tropical paradise and is also the capital of the British Virgin Islands. Located in the heart of Road Harbour — a lush, horseshoe-shaped area in the center of Tortola’s southern coast, this scenic island town’s name comes from a nautical term (“the roads”) which refers to a place that ships can easily access but which is less sheltered than a harbor. With its gloriously balmy climate and architecture that dates back to the 1840s, Road Town is the ideal vacation destination for boaters who seek a secluded, exotic retreat.
Port Tortola is a fantastic destination to get out on the water. Boat rentals, sailing tours, kayaking, snorkeling, and scuba diving are some of the top activities enjoyed by visitors. You can charter a yacht in Road Town - it’s a very popular place for that experience and there are many different styles and sizes of yachts available.
It’s warm and sunny year-round in Road Town and Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. The best time to visit for favorable weather is from September through early December. This way you’ll avoid the stifling heat of peak summer, and also avoid the crowds that come for summer and holiday vacations.
The water temperature in Road Town and Tortola is consistent throughout the year, about 27°C (81°F) making it great for a comfortable swim and to enjoy water sports and activities.
Spent a great week with with Captain Santi and first mate Lucia. The boat although an older one, is well maintained and in excellent condition. The Itinerary was nice and we visited some nice spots. Santi and Lucia where always available to tend to us, answer our questions and make us feel welcomed. We had great conversations over dinner. They even surprised us with a unexpected day activity while visiting St Barth. All in all this was a nice relaxing vacation and would recommend it to anyone wanting to live the experience of a week on a private charter. Oh and I forgot to mention that the food was also very good.
Santiago and Lucia, the crew you had on May 18th wants to say a very thank you! You guys are amazing and we couldn’t have chartered a Catamaran with anyone else except with you guys. If you are looking for a great customer experience, please book them. I’m a Nurse Manager in the U.S so I know what customer service looks like, especially dealing with people for hours! They were incredible, very respectful, and great communicators! The price to charter is also reasonable compared to other Catamaran owners. It was six (6) of us that went on this trip, they vessel is spacious. Overall, it’s even more beautiful than whats been shown in the pictures! We love Santiago and Lucia. If you are looking for a great experience, book the Nemo Catamaran!! We cannot wait to experience this again with them!! Thank you once again!! Love from the U.S ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Santi and Lucia were wonderful hosts / captains for our trip! We HIGHLY recommend them over any corporate charter company - you cannot beat the value. The catamaran is clean, modern, well-equipped for activities, and spacious. They brought us to beautiful islands and even allowed us to stay a little longer upon return to watch the sunset. Thank you so much for a perfect day on the water!
The most perfect day with Santi and Lucia. The boat was clean and beautiful and they planned the most gorgeous trip for us around St. Martin. We can't wait to come back and spend time with them. It was truly the highlight of our trip.
We highly recommend this! Wonderful crew that was so lovely. The boat was beautiful and we enjoyed our day. We would tell all friends and family headed to St. Martin to book this exact excursion. Thank you so much!
We had a fabulous time. It’s a beautiful boat. Santiago and Lucia are great captains and super hosts. The best day of our trip!
