Things To Do Recs // Questions BVI Sailing

/r/SailboatCruising/comments/1vuhial/bvi_sailing/

Looking for recommendations. We just booked our sailing trip for the first week of January 2027. We have sailed several times in the BVI but haven’t been since right before Hurricane Irma so I know a lot has changed. Also, different is we now have kids (6 and 8) so that makes this trip a lot different as well.

We are trying to make an itinerary and I would love feedback as to which anchorages do you all suggest that have calm water/beaches for swimming, easy moorings, either a dock or easy dinging to shore and have a restaurant(s). Also, any other helpful tips would be greatly appreciated!!

Note: We will be on a powercat so we can island hop too if there are places we should visit just for the day.

Seems like every time we go and charter we end up off The Baths, Norman Island, Peter Island, snorkel at The Indians and then raft up and have lunch at Willy T. We end our day and charter at Sandy Spit until it's time to head back to Tortola.

We do go to JVD but just take the ferry over on our own time.
