We bring no food and provision ourselves for breakfast and lunch with dinners mostly on shore.

Our first and second trips we provisioned 100% before the trip and had it delivered to the boat. The first trip it was our "insurance policy" since we had no ide what to expect. The second trip we wasted so much and gave it to boats on their way out.

Our third and fourth trips, we learned.

Arrived with a small bag with clothes, swimsuits and toiletries to make it through our trips. What a wonderful way to go! So liberating.

Bought what was available at the local markets to make it a few days and made it part of the trip. There's always neat stuff to try.

We've shopped at the following markets over the years:
Bobby's for full provisions delivered to the boat
Rite Way in Sopers Hole - great market with a nice deli upstairs
Bobby's in Cane Garden Bay
The market on Jost at the other end of the road from Foxys
Leverick marina market
Bitter End market for yummy pastries

We always catch the infection that draws us to shore to eat the yummy local food. We don't feel the guilt of having food waste on the boat. Pizza at Quitos, appetizers at Saba, pizza again at Bitter End Pub, breakfast buffet at Bitter End, Corsairs on Jost, there are just so many great places!

It's vacation and we just aren't bothered anymore with the stress of food. People in BVI eat too and we just do what they do.

Enjoy! We always do!
