BVI and Caribbean Foodie Vacations

A crewed yacht charter makes an ideal pick for a family or group of friends in search of a BVI or Caribbean foodie vacation.

Why choose a fully crewed charter in the BVI or Caribbean for your next Foodie Vacation?

Many of our charter clients tell us that the on-board food, wine pairing, and al-fresco dining experience are a key highlight of their BVI charter vacations.
All of our key foodie vacation recommendations feature talented and creative Chefs who'll specifically tailor charter menus according to their guests dietary preferences and requirements.
All of our recommended Chef's, but particularly our notable Chefs, are accustomed to doing a "foodie version" for adults and adventurous eaters plus necessary "simplified versions" for more picky eaters or kids.
Our featured Chefs take their food and dining experience to the next level. Many of these top-end Chefs honed their skills from a combination of their experience on yachts, professional culinary training or courses, or tutelage from other renowned Chefs. Others have simply risen to the occasion with a passion for food and natural talent for all things culinary.

Discover a small sampling of our key culinary yacht picks below or better yet, contact us today to start planning your BVI foodie vacation.

Hi Lynne, your ears must be burning. I was just getting my thoughts together to compose an email to you as follow up from the trip. Bottom line: fabulous experience, meals that were so off the chart good that I don't have enough descriptive superlatives to do them justice and super attentive service aboard a truly beautiful boat. More to come - but want to thank you for the pairing - you nailed it. Also - newsletter sounds great.

A family that we booked aboard 52' Catamaran Grace in April 2021 said:

There were two primary things I told you when we first spoke: (1) my family likes good food, and (2) my son and I are inexperienced divers. From that information, as well as our other discussions, you paired us with the perfect yacht and crew. Not only will we be back, we will be back specifically with Joseph and Britta aboard Grace. Long story short, my family has concluded that this may well be the highest form of vacation in existence.
