About the U.S. Virgin Islands

St.Thomas represents a favourite ‘home port’ base for many large, professionally crewed yachts due to its easy access to the extensive cruising grounds of the British and U.S. Virgin Islands, the Spanish Virgin Islands and the Leeward Islands beyond, and for its direct air links with the United States. There are numerous daily flights between St. Thomas and the U.S. mainland.

This link with the U.S. also benefits superyachts with the proliferation of first-rate service companies that embrace the very concept of service in the way that the Americans do so well.

This commitment to customer service is enjoyed from the first point of contact with your recommended Yacht Agent through to some excellent berthing options from a choice of first rate marinas who really understand the concept of customer service. Few marinas understand the importance of dockside service standards in the way that the team at Crown Bay Marina do and the excellent superyacht dockage facilities at Yacht Haven Grande Marina continue to attract some of the world’s largest yachts up to 450 ft. LOA.

The provisioning services in the USVI are also first class, with a great selection of top end retail stores, well-resourced specialist provisioners and excellent wine merchants.

Technical services are also well represented by a selection of professional companies including one of the best refrigeration / air conditioning services in the Caribbean, an excellent liferaft and safety equipment service station, good support for outboards, tenders and mechanical services plus attractively priced, ultra-low sulphur diesel fuel and quality marine lubricants are available throughout the USVI, with Tri-Island Marine, Carib Oil and Bunkers, of St. Croix.

Shoreside, there are some great restaurants to choose from, both in St. Thomas and St. Croix. For further rest and relaxation, there is a choice of excellent golf courses in St. Croix. Out on the water, there are some beautiful cruising grounds to be explored. For game fishing enthusiasts, this includes the Blue Marlin capital of the Caribbean, which can be easily accessed by chartering one of the recommended sport fishing boats at the American Yacht Harbor, Red Hook.
