How far a ride is it and can it be reached by dingy.

Nahhhh, way too far with dinghy. You can go on the ferry though. You can't go into the BVI's with a dinghy anyway.

"Nahhhh, way too far with dinghy".
And, by inference, even more improbable in a kayak.
All the best,

A day trip is definitely more pricey, but so much more fun! Fly Away Charters leaves from Coral Bay. I personally had a great time with them! Palm Tree Charters is another reputable power-boat charter. I think they leave out of Cruz Bay, but I'm not sure. Either way, ferry, charter boat, swim, kayak, or dinghy, you're in the Virgin Islands! Have a Painkiller & enjoy

It's definitly doable by dingy. People from Coral Bay do it all the time. Not sure if you are refering to a rental dingy, that may be different... must check in of course.

Even from Coral Bay,don't you have to check into customs for the BV's? How does that work?
