Hire a sailboat in the British Virgin Islands with or without skipper with SamBoat

The British Virgin Islands are an archipelago located in the Caribbean and are part of the British mainland. It comprises four main islands, Jost Van Dyke, Anegada, Virgin Gorda and Tortola. The British Virgin Islands have more than 60 cays and smaller islands, ideal for visiting by boat. The capital, Road Town, is on the largest island, Tortola. It is famous for its colourful architecture and for having a protected park with tropical flora. In this city you can hire a sailboat, with or without Skipper, to sail around this famous archipelago. 

If you hire a sailboat in the Caribbean, you can sail and visit any beach you want. Visit Apple Bay beach, where you will find the best waves for surf. Another beach you should visit is Cane Garden Bay which has calm waves and is sheltered from the wind, ideal for an overnight stay aboard a boat. An unspoilt beach to visit is Loblolly Bay, one of the best beaches in the world. Another idea is to hire a catamaran in the British Virgin Islands and spends the day at Elizabeth Beach, a great place to spend time with the family and enjoy the scenery.
