Summertime in the US & British Virgin Islands
May 18, 2026St. Thomas Boat Charters is geared up and ready for an incredible summer season. The United States Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands are absolutely beautiful this time of year, with warm sunshine, crystal-clear water, and near-perfect weather. Unlike many other tropical destinations, the Virgin Islands enjoy a refreshing year-round breeze that keeps conditions comfortable both on the water and onshore.
Summer is also a wonderful time to visit because the islands are a little less crowded, and the water is exceptionally warm and inviting. Saint Thomas and Saint John offer countless snorkeling spots, secluded cays, and thriving coral reefs filled with colorful marine life. Guests frequently encounter yellowtail snapper, rainbow parrotfish, pufferfish, sergeant majors, and various species of grouper.
Captain Nate and his experienced team know all of the best locations and can take you to see spotted eagle rays, southern stingrays, and the famous green sea turtles at Maho Bay.
If you are looking for a more relaxing itinerary, St. Thomas Boat Charters can take you to some of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean, including Cinnamon Bay, Trunk Bay, Hawksnest Beach, and Salt Pond Bay.
For guests with valid passports, Captain Nate and his knowledgeable crew can also take you to the British Virgin Islands. Your captain will handle all customs paperwork and help create a seamless and unforgettable day on the water. The British Virgin Islands are home to some of the best snorkeling in the Caribbean, including the The Caves at Norman Island and The Indians, two of the most iconic snorkeling destinations in the region.
If a laid-back beach day is more your style, the world-famous Soggy Dollar Bar on Jost Van Dyke is a favorite stop. Swim ashore with your “soggy dollars” and enjoy the original Painkiller cocktail in the place where it became legendary.
For a truly picture-perfect experience, St. Thomas Boat Charters can also take you to Sandy Spit, a tiny private island with a single palm tree that was featured in the classic Corona commercials of the late 1980s. It is one of the most breathtaking beaches in the world.
Whether this is your first visit to the Virgin Islands or you are returning to your favorite Caribbean paradise, Captain Nate and his team will listen to your preferences and create a customized day you will never forget. They are passionate about what they do and love sharing the beauty of the islands with every guest.
