A Valentine’s Day Yacht Adventure In The Caribbean

Dial Up The Romance This February 14th With A Valentine’s Day Yacht Charter – You Won’t Regret It

Looking for a way to make Valentine’s Day extra special this year? Take a break from the time-worn formula of dinner, chocolate and flowers, and delight your partner beyond their wildest dreams with a Valentine’s Day yacht charter in the balmy Caribbean.

Making happy memories together is a fantastic way to celebrate and build your relationship, and there’s no better place to do so than on board a romantic Valentine’s charter aboard a luxury sailing yacht, spending your days sailing the trade winds, diving head first into turquoise seas, and taking sunset walks along powder-white beaches lined with coconut palms. With a professional crew on board including a skipper and private chef taking care of your every whim, you and your loved can focus on relaxing and enjoying. It may be more pricey than your usual Valentine’s plans, but for a blowout celebration the experience will be worth the investment!

Valentine’s Day Yacht Charters in the Caribbean

The Caribbean is one of the great yachting playgrounds, with thousands of tropical islands scattered across multiple cruising areas. However, this does mean it can be difficult to decide between the spectacular Caribbean destinations – will you choose the French-Caribbean glamour of St Barts, the cloud forests and colonial beauty of St Kitts, the coral reefs of the Tobago Cays, or the staggering volcanic grandeur of St Lucia? With years of experiencing organising sailing vacations for couples, sailing yacht charter experts like Oyster Yachts can help you to pick the cruising destination for you.

One of the most popular Caribbean cruising grounds is the dreamily beautiful British Virgin Islands (BVIs), where the lush peaks of ancient volcanoes are dotted through the blue-green sea, edged by dazzling white sand beaches. The BVIs are a legendary destination for sailing, as the islands are in close proximity within a protected cruising ground, with the trade winds making for hugely enjoyable and safe cruising. Plus, Valentine’s Day in February is an ideal time to cruise here, promising the warm days and clear seas of the tropical Caribbean winter season.

Sailing Vacations for Couples in the BVIs: Your Itinerary

Oyster Yachts’ Charter team can help you plan a customised itinerary that perfectly suits you and your partner, with recommendations for those small things that no trip to the BVIs is complete without. Imagine snorkeling the crystal-clear pools and ethereal boulder caves of the Virgin Gorda Baths with your beloved, delighting in the array of exotic sea life. Spending an afternoon indulging in heart-racing watersports before kicking back with a ‘Painkiller’ cocktail at the Soggy Dollar Bar. Sinking your feet in the sand and watching the dramatic Caribbean sun burn orange as it sinks into the sea.

Scuba diving is also a major activity in the British Virgin Islands, with sensational wreck diving on the RMS Rhone and along the famous Wreck Alley. For reef diving, the horseshoe reef surrounding Anegada Island is magnificent and makes for a perfect afternoon when topped off with a walk to see the island’s bright pink flamingos. As the light turns to dusk, head to the beach for a starlit meal of fresh-grilled lobster and champagne, all organised by your dedicated crew.

As your Valentine’s Day yacht charter floats between the old pirate haunts of Tortola and Jost Van Dyke, you’ll discover countless perfect beaches, as well as luxury spas and breezy restaurants under the coconut palms. That is, of course, if you can drag yourself away from your luxury sailboat, where you’ll spend the days relaxing on onboard, swimming, and enjoying elegant candlelit meals on deck, before retiring to your 5-star cabin for a blissful night’s sleep, lulled by the gentle lap of the tide. The days on a BVI Valentine’s Day yacht escape blur a happy haze of sunshine and warm seas, strolling colourful Caribbean villages and hiking or zip-lining through the rainforest.

How to Organise a Valentine’s Day Yacht Charter

Whether it’s your first time chartering a luxury yacht or your tenth, you’ll find the process made incredibly simple by the Oyster Charter team. You can find plenty of information about how to charter a yacht in their yacht charter guide, with a range of exciting Oyster models to choose from in the Oyster charter fleet.

Valentine’s Day or not, sailing vacations for couples are an ideal way to escape from the normal pressures and worries of everyday life, creating the space to reconnect and create new memories to look back on through the years. A February Valentine’s Day yacht charter allows you to swap chilly northern hemisphere winter with a week of sunshine and fair winds. It’s a difficult proposition to resist– and your partner will be ecstatic when they hear your special plans for this February 14th!
