The capital and largest city in the U.S. Virgin Islands. It has two ports of call for cruise vessels, Havensight and Crown Bay. SeaDream yachts are almost always docked at Crown Bay which is very close to the airport. In the event the yachts call to the island as a port of call rather than an embarkation point, you will find the yacht anchored in the bay and tendering downtown. The island has tons of history, beautiful beaches, a fantastic golf course and incredible shopping options.
A stunning island situated in the North Sound of Virgin Gorda and got its name because of the large flowering cactus all over the island. The island was declared a National Park in 1988 meaning the 180 acres will have no further development, just an island filled with natural beauty. Breathtaking hiking trails start from the main beach Vixen Point, winds around the island filled with salt ponds heading to the north shore which has two other amazing secluded beaches.
This Caribbean paradise is a special municipality of the Netherlands. Due to this fact, Saba is actually the location of the tallest, or highest point/elevation of the Netherlands, even though it is a few thousand miles away from its European homeland. With an estimated local population of just over 2,000 people, Saba is now primarily supported by tourism, and is known for a concentration on “eco-tourism”. This includes diving, hiking, and climbing its mountainous terrain.
The island is so small that there is only 1 main road, and its airport is well-known for having one of the shortest commercial runways in the world. The island’s intimate size, picturesque Red rooftops and lush vegetation make it a perfect port to call on during your special Caribbean yachting vacation.
Perhaps our most treasured destination in the Caribbean! This small island belonging to the French West Indies has so much to offer our SeaDream guests. Incredible shopping only steps away from the pier. Incredible beaches, resorts, restaurants and activities both day and night. SeaDream has created various land adventures for you to discover the island from sea or land. Ask one of the officers to take you on a hike or bike ride around the island. Another great activity here is to simply relax and watch all of the incredible yachts arriving and departing just off your SeaDream yacht.

Nearly every publication written about Virgin Gorda will emphasize the need to visit “The Baths” – don’t miss it! SeaDream generally arrives early and anchors off Spanish Town to give guests an early start to view The Baths before all of the tourists arrive from the neighboring Islands. You may also consider excellent scuba diving options or an opportunity to swim with the dolphins. SeaDream navigates scenically up the coast and arrives in North Sound to anchor just off the Bitter End Yacht Club. Here we offer watersports, land adventures, hiking options with the crew and tenders to the Bitter End! Depending on the voyage, you may also visit Prickly Pear Island for another signature Champagne & Caviar Splash® option with an incredible setting.
Enjoy the welcoming Caribbean breeze and the famous Baths located nearby. Other attractions include the Coppermine Ruins and Gorda Peak National Park. Of course, snorkeling is popular as are the sandy white beaches.
Norman Island is located at the southern tip of the British Virgin Islands. It could very well be the very same island reputed to be the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's pirate novel Treasure Island. It is said that the island was named after a pirate who purchased it at some point during the early 18th century. The island is uninhabited and privately owned by Dr Henry Jarecki. Its area is about 600 acres (2.4 km²), and it is about 2.5 miles (4 km) long. A large harbor is known as "The Bight" offers one of the most protected anchorages in the area. Guests will enjoy some great hiking opportunities as well as snorkeling and scuba diving. Another attractive option may be to check out the Willie T that is generally anchored in the harbor or simply have a beverage at the Pirates Bight Bar.
Despite being a small island, Great Harbor has quite the personality. Aside from overly delicious bars and restaurants you can spot on a short walk, you’ll also be greeted by aromatic smells of multiple bakeries around the island. For aquatic getaways, make sure to go on a diving or snorkeling exploration in the stunning sun-kissed waters of Great Harbor.

The BVI’s barefoot island and home of the "Painkiller" drink. Population depends on the month – typically 250-300. This is another SeaDream destination where you may be served Champagne & Caviar Splash® followed by a beach barbecue lunch. A hike is always offered to guests to visit the famous Foxy’s Bar at Great Harbour (hopefully, the boutique is open) or you can stroll a few meters down the beach to the Soggy Dollar Bar. Snorkeling equipment is provided as well as some of our water toys!

If you like a good workout in beautiful natural surroundings, this hike is for you! Enjoy some of Saba’s unspoiled beauty with a hike along the Crispeen Track.
Named for Saint Crispeen, the patron saint of shoemakers, this vigorous trail starts at the little town known as The Bottom. From the tender pier, you get to the starting point by local taxi van and set out with your local nature guide. The guide will point out the island flora as the trail leads you through the rainforest, across fields and over a forest ridge.
The trail continues through pasture land, highlighting views of The Bottom and secondary rainforest, until it meets with the Mt. Scenery Trail. From this point, a downhill trek of about 300 steps brings you to the town of Windward side, where you will be able to enjoy a refreshing lemonade and a local Johnny Cake at the new Colibri Café or do some shopping. At the time and place designated by your driver, you will be picked up for the ride down to the tender landing and your SeaDream yacht.
Notes
As this is a hike covering a distance of approximately 3½ miles, (mostly uphill), please wear appropriate footwear. Participants must be in good physical health. Bring protection from the sun and some water from the gangway. We recommend that you keep your hands free so bring a small backpack if you have one. Pack your bathing suit for a swim after the hike at Tropics Cafe pool; towels will be provided.

Find out today why the charming island of Saba has been dubbed the "unspoiled queen." This SeaDream Yachting Land Adventure (YLA) will introduce you to the island's history and main points of interest and is your best and most convenient way to "see it all." Your sightseeing is conducted in the local taxi vans that await to show you the island's main villages and magnificent scenery.
Starting at the port, you first visit "The Bottom", Saba's capital. Then continue through St. John's, home to the island's schools, where you have an incredible vantage point of the neighboring islands of St. Eustatius, St. Kitts and Nevis. Then pass-through Windward Side, the village at the highest elevation, enroute to Hell's Gate. Here the local ladies have their Saba Lacework on display, and there is a beautiful view of Saba's death-defying airport and surrounding islands from the Holy Rosary Church. Finally, return to Windward Side for some free time to explore the village, do some shopping or grab a snack before returning to the harbor.
Please do not judge the beauty of this magnificent island by the industrial looking harbor. This island simply should not be missed.

This is the "Must-see & Do" Yachting Land Adventure on Virgin Gorda, if not in the entire British Virgin Islands. Open-air safari wagons will take you and your fellow SeaDreamers on a short twenty-minute ride through the village of Spanish Town to discover The Baths, an intriguing group of sea caves and unusual rock formations, spectacularly set on an amazing beach. From the parking area follow the winding footpath down to the beach to explore this geological wonder. Wade knee deep through the sea caves formed by mammoth boulders and bask in the shafts of sunlight pouring through the natural ceiling into the pools below. Learn about the boulders' origins and the many curious names given to the rock formations. Swim, relax and enjoy the ambiance of this piece of paradise. Then, retrace your footprints in the sand and ascend the path to the Top of the Baths where you will enjoy a fresh fruit smoothie. There is also time to relax and take a dip in the pool before departing via the safari wagons for the return to your SeaDream yacht.
Notes
This tour involves walking along an uneven natural trail on an incline to and from the beaches. The trail through The Baths requires walking over giant wet boulders, bending under boulders, and descending ladders; guests’ feet will get wet while walking through this area. The cave exploration portion may be strenuous for some guests, and guests may set their own pace and participate as much or as little as they wish. Guests who prefer not to take part in the cave exploration may remain at the beach during this portion of the tour. The tour is not recommended for guests with mobility considerations. The vehicle requires guests to climb 3 steps to board and has forward-facing bench seats accommodating 5 guests per bench. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended for the uneven footpath to The Baths, and water shoes, not flip-flops, should be worn in the water. A backpack is more convenient than a shoulder bag when walking through The Baths. Guests should bring swimwear, a towel, and sunscreen. The park operates a flag warning system: a red flag indicates no swimming, while a yellow flag indicates that guests should enter the water with caution. The minimum age is 5 years. Cold refreshments, snacks, and souvenir items are available for purchase at The Baths.

This delightful adventure begins when you board a twin-engine snorkel launch to two of the BVIs’ prime snorkeling sites. You will snorkel at the famed Caves at Norman Island with a reputed history of piracy and immortalized in Robert Louis Stevenson's famous book: "Treasure Island." Afterwards you will continue on to “The Indians” – a small archipelago of uninhabited islets for a second snorkeling opportunity which is in shallower waters before returning back to your SeaDream Yacht. An experienced snorkel instructor will accompany you to both of these sites and provide you with added information on what you should not miss seeing.
