Yacht Services & Facilities on The United States Virgin Islands (USVIs)

The yacht services and facilities set up to serve cruising yachtsmen and charterers in this hugely popular cruising area can be found on just three saintly islands - St Croix, St John & St Thomas.

Unless you're an American, don't even think about sailing there from the BVI's unless you've got a US visa in your passport. You won't be made welcome without one...
