Calypso to JVD

[mrscherry2000]

We went on Calypso's Bad Kitty a couple of years ago and enjoyed it immensely. We were considering taking their boat to JVD this time. Has anybody done that charter? Would you recommend it?

I would love to do a private charter, but for just the two of us, it's out of my budget.

no, but a really affordable way is to take the ferry from St. John to Jost! I think it was 60 pp/rt. You get there around 9:30-10:00ish and the ferry leaves at 3:00 I think....great day on Jost!

That was our other option we were considering if we didn't do Calypso. I felt we'd get a more relaxing time if I didn't have to worry about catching that last ferry from Jost.

We went to Jost on a Calypso catamaran sail, and it was great. We stopped for a snorkel, hit Foxy's for lunch then wrapped up at Soggy Dollar. We also did the water taxi to Virgin Gorda, and that was a pretty easy way to go to the BVI, as well. Plus, our time was our own - not so structured.

We did the Calypso catamaran sail to JVD in May and loved it.

We made a snorkel stop at one of the cays on the way over and saw a couple of turtles as well as all kinds of other cool stuff. We then proceeded to Great Habour to clear in but decided as a group that we'd pass on Foxy's and head straight to White Bay. Everyone was glad we did.

Once we got to White Bay everyone was on their own for the next few hours and we had plenty of time to eat at the Soggy Dollar, take a chair into the water and drink Pain Killers, play the ring game, check out the other beach bars, and nap in a hammock. We never felt rushed, but it still sucked just the same when it was time to go.

We then had a nice sail back to Cruz Bay and even had a good size pod of dolphins put on a show around the boat for about 20 minutes.

Let me know if I can book it for you - I work for Calypso and she is a great boat
