How VegeSailing works

VegeSailing is a highly personalized sailing vacation. We want to make your travel arrangements as smooth and straightforward as possible and leave the adventure and mystery for the actual sailing! Here is what you can expect from VegeSailing, start to finish.

Preparing your trip

The VegeSailing adventure

Back to reality!

The first step in VegeSailing is to plan your trip with our online bookings form, and request a quote. We will let you know which departure dates are available based on your selections, and send you a global quote with all your vacation details and conditions. You will need to confirm your vacation by making a deposit (credit card via Paypal, or money order). We will then confirm your flights and charter dates and send you your tickets and itinerary by mail, with all relevant documentation, a practical packing list, a British Virgin Islands travel guide, a contract and waiver document that you will need to return by mail. You will need to make your final payment 2 months prior to departure. At any moment before your departure, you will be able to contact us with any questions you may have.

We will most likely arrive on the same flight as you, so we will take you to the marina in the hotel shuttle. We will spend the first night in the marina hotel, which has a swimming pool and restaurant. Your vegetarian dinner and breakfast will be included. In the evening, we will sit down with you and discuss our itinerary. The next day, you will be able to board the boat around 12pm, and we will set sail after a short briefing.

From then on, we will be FREE to sail anywhere we want in the beautiful British Virgin Islands! No worries…just clear blue waters and white sand beaches. We just have to make our way to a sheltered bay each evening to spend the night. Depending on the length of the trip and the number of people, we may have to dock to fill up water tanks, stock up on food, or change linen.

The last morning of sailing, we will be within a couple of hours of the Road Town harbor. You will need to pack your bags (oh no!) and be ready to disembark upon docking. We will plan our docking time based on your flight times (noon at the latest). You can fly home the same day or stay an extra night in the marina hotel. In either case, the hotel shuttle will take you to the airport. We are certain that you will wonder why you have to leave the Islands, but this will be the end of your VegeSailing adventure!

In the following days, we will send you all the digital pictures we took during your vacation on a CD. We’ll also send you a VegeSailing certificate with a plotted itinerary of your sailing trip. Finally, you’ll receive a cool VegeSailing t-shirt for each member of your party.
