BVI Private Charter to Jost Van Dyke on 32' Power Catamaran
Overview
The name says it all! This private trip is designed for those who want a later start and only want to visit the popular Jost Van Dyke.
On this trip, the theme is having fun at a leisurely pace. The itinerary and schedule for the "Just Jost" trip is simple and uncomplicated. After clearing customs, you will get to enjoy any number of the lively beach bars and restaurants that Jost is known for. If there is interest, we can stop at Sandy Spit (aka Corona Island) where you can explore a deserted tropical island surrounded by turquoise water. Possible stops include Foxy's, Foxy's Taboo, the Bubbly Pools, Corsairs, the Soggy Dollar Bar, Hendos, Ivan's Stress Free Bar, and the B-Line Beach Bar just to name a few.

What To Expect
So you only want to go to Jost Van Dyke? Let's go! On your private charter to Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands with Shades of Blue Charters, you will only be with your family/friends and the captain. The boat, Shady Lady, is yours for the day and you call the shots. The captain can certainly guide you in creating your day's itinerary if you would like. First, stop off for a swim at Sandy Spit, a small uninhabited island where Corona commercials were once filmed. Next, head over to Jost Van Dyke to visit the Bubbly Pool. Lunch options on Jost Van Dyke are numerous, as are the number of beach bars. White Bay is the epicenter when it comes to beach bars - take your pick - Ivan’s Stress Free Bar, Hendo’s Hideout, Foxy’s, Corsairs and of course, the famous Soggy Dollar.

Filter by:
Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All Cool Destinations snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.
For these reasons, we believe that even non-swimmers can have a wonderful time on our snorkeling trips, however, the final judgment call is yours to make. Please note we do not give refunds if you decide not to snorkel on the trip.
Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on Cool Destinations tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use. However, if you feel more comfortable using your own snorkeling equipment, feel free to bring it on the tour. Please note, there is no discount for providing your own equipment and we can’t be responsible for any lost or damaged items.
May 2023First-time snorkelers can be assured of one-on-one instruction and assistance. We find introducing folks to our world very rewarding!
Oct 2021There are no legal age limits for snorkeling. We have found that age 5 or 6 is a good age to learn the basics of snorkeling, however, it’s entirely up to individuals to make the best choice for their family.
Sep 2021If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
