What is the best time of year to rent a catamaran in Tortola?

Tortola is warm and sunny year-round, making it the perfect place for a sailing holiday! For the best weather with the least amount of precipitation, we recommend a catamaran charter in Tortola between December and April. This is the dry season with an average of 31°C and nine hours of sunshine per day! However, this is the high tourist season on the island so if you want to avoid large crowds of tourists we’d recommend visiting in September and November. There will be slightly more precipitation at this time but your holiday will be more relaxing, and you’ll get better deals on Tortola catamaran rentals!

Should I charter a catamaran in Tortola with or without a skipper?

Although we’ve got a fleet of catamaran rentals in Tortola with or without a skipper, we always recommend choosing a vessel with a skipper on board for maximum relaxation and security on your sailing holiday. If you have a licence to sail, you can still take the helm with a skipper present or, if you prefer to relax the skipper can do it for you! For people without nautical experience, skippers are licenced professionals who will dock, anchor and navigate the vessel so you don’t have to worry about a thing. Skippers are also usually locals of the area so they can take you to see all of the best sights on the island and give you recommendations about where to go and what to see. For a relaxing and worry-free sailing trip, choose a Tortola catamaran charter with a skipper!

• Hike up Mount Sage: If you’re looking for a bit of exercise and scenic views, then hiking up Mount Sage is a must-do. The hike itself is not difficult, but it does take a while to reach the top. Once you’re there, you’ll be rewarded with beautiful views of the entire island.

What should I consider before renting a catamaran in Tortola?

When choosing the ideal vessel for your sailing holiday, it’s important to think about how much time you plan to spend on board. If you only plan to sail for a few days, a catamaran might not be the best option because it includes more than you’ll need. Catamarans are typically rented by the week and they are the perfect vessel for a longer holiday with family and friends. They are fully equipped with a kitchen, bathroom and cabins, to make your time on the water as comfortable as possible. They are also unique from other vessels since they have a double-hulled structure which provides them more stability on the water, catering to guests with seasickness. For a spacious and stable vessel with everything you could ever need, choose a catamaran rental in Tortola!
