Is there any other boat that you can get that only goes to Virgin Gorda for the day from St. John?

We had done the ferry another time and loved that we had plenty of time to spend at the Baths. We're going again this March and wondered if there are any boats like New Horizons, Limnos, etc. that strictly go to Virgin Gorda without other stops and lunch... Something quicker and more expensive (obviously) than the ferry?

Thanks!

Lisa

None that I am aware of. You could always rent a boat and do it yourself. It's pretty easy to find. Or you could rent a boat and a captain. Or you could have ME be your captain! And my wife can be the first mate! Yeah! That's the way! And we could get 4 other people to go along to cut the cost! With Tiffany and I going as the "workers", the trip would only be about $80 per person, including customs. Hmmmm.....maybe I should start a new buisness?

Hello Lisa,

The 6 packs charters are somewhat flexiable if you are doing a private charter, so going just to Virgin Gorda might be an option. The following charters do pick up on St. John and have BVI trips. You might contact them and see what the costs are for a private trip and also ask what their expected 'commute' time is. I don't know of any larger charters, like the ones you mentioned, that offer just VG.
