5 out of 5 stars Getting ready for BVI   November 14, 2009

" Cruising Guide to the Vergin Islands" is a wonderful wish book if you are getting ready to go to the Islands for a charter vacation. It is loaded with information on routes, anchorages, what to do ashore, what to eat at the many out of the way places located on the coves and harbors scattered around the Vergin Islands. It's divided between the Virgin Islands and the British Virgin Islands to keep things simple. It even gives some insight on how real estate can be had if you want to Live the dream..Even a chart so you can plot your routes around the Islands. Good reading even if you never make the trip.


5 out of 5 stars Best sailing Guide for the BVI!   February 14, 2010
Martina (Indiana)
We are planning our first chartered catamaran trip to the BVI and this has by far been the best source of information for our trip!! Even though we have visited St. John's twice before, this is our first sailing trip and we have found this book so much better than the rest. The map is outstanding and the reviews on the islands extensive. Don't think twice about ordering this book....could not find it anywhere in bookstores!


5 out of 5 stars Sailor's delight!   April 13, 2010

This is an excellent guide for bareboaters or anyone touring the Virgin Islands by boat. Most travel guides are written from the terrestial travler point of view, this one from the nautical. Be certain to buy Virgin Anchorages, the companion booklet showing beautiful color photos of major (and some minor) bay along with anchoring notes not found on the offical nautical charts. The included nautical chart is a great addition to the offical charts as the shallow areas are clearly shaded in red,unlike the offical charts. This is an excellent tool for planning your caribbean bareboat cruise!

This is the fourth time I buy "Cruising Guide to the BVI", the first one was back in 1995. It continues to be the basic guide to sail in the area and the work Nancy and Simon Scott are doing to its constant updating and upgrading makes this guide an essential tool for anyone who loves to spend some time afloat in that sailing paradise. Congratulations to the authors. I'll hope to be there to buy the next edition!!

This is the third cruising guide that I have purchased for the VI over the years, this one lives up to my high expectations for content and relevance.
