I'm going to STT in March and my family wants to take a day sail trip to see the caves at Virgin Gorda.

Can anyone recommend a day sail that leaves from STT? Preferably one that serves food, alchol and has a great staff. We would also prefer a boat that seats 10-20, as we enjoy a small crowd on trips like this.

Last year we did one from Cruz Bay watersports @ the Westin and loved it, but I think traveling from town in STT (where we are staying) to the Westin is too much, so early in the morning.

Any info will be helpful!
THankS!!!!!!!

I agree. The new horizons s a great choice. You will need to leave in the morning but that wil not be a problem. You could also stay on the east end and be right there. The New Horizons leaves from Sapphire Beach

Maureen, I think you can forget the "Sail" trip to VG if you meant Sail in the true sense. It's about a 70 mile round trip and at sail at say 9mph, well you can do the math. Here is a site that has several Day Sail and Day Excursions listed including New Horizon and Limnos. Both very good. Limnos in bigger but plenty of room. There are others as well. The Baths at VG are a sight to behold. A very worth while trip. Just keep scrolling down on the site. There are a couple headings for the different boats. http://www.st-thomas.com/
