We are going to charter a boat ( with captain so we can cocktail) for a day. We will be leaving from leverick. I wouldn’t mind one good snorkel outing but that’s not the sole purpose of the day. Most of our group has not been to the BVI before so I’m trying to figure out the best day trip. I have loved Marina Cay and Cooper - well, actually I’ve loved them all. I guess I’m wondering if trying to get Jost in is doable along with Cooper and probably at least a quick stop at Willie T. We could maybe snorkel Monkey Poiint or the Indians (would love opinions on that). Is there a “typical” itinerary for a day like this? Scenery and beach bars probably more important than constant stops for snorkeling. Thank you I’m advance for opinions.

In a power boat, you can go where ever you want. Many years ago we took a power boat from st thomas and even with checking into the BVI and back into the USVI, we were able to get to the Baths and the indians.

I'd pick 2 to maybe 3 of the top spots you want to stop and start with the furthest (I'm sure the captain could offer some input as well). Maybe plan on Lunch at Norman or Cooper? Cooper could also be an end of the day stop for drinks?

Yes. I was thinking the rum bar might be a great last stop. Thank you

maybe go either go South of Tortola or North...agree as start with farthest and work back

If south Indians snorkeling (which has been better than Monkey lately), Willie T, and then Cooper?

If north then JVD White Bay, Monkey for snorkeling, then Marina Cay

You might want to check with Dive BvI out of Spanish Town.
They offer different itineraries on different days with some
stopping at Cooper and also private excursions
Very professional
We've used them several times and always have a great time
