The experience was far better than we had even hoped. It was my first experience with the Moorings and the team was professional and clearly well organized in setting our trip up for success. Aided by the spectacular setting of the BVI and with a little God-given beautiful weather, and it was even better than we hoped!

Our skipper and chef (Theo and Martina) were absolute pros and provided a phenomenal experience.

This was the first time using Moorings. We picked up a boat in the BVI and crewed ourselves. The boat was excellent and the sevice was fast and efficient at the base before we left. They made evething very easy including sending a pilot out to dock the unweldy vessel at the end of the cruise. The boat was in very good shape and all systems worked adequately. (One couple complained about ordors from their head.)
I highly recomment Moorings. i would definatley use them again. -
I’ve bareboated with friends in the BVI for years…this time we chartered with Captain Levi, Chef Lauren and Ella. Wow! The entire experience was delightfully carefree! Delicious meals, new spots to explore, and first-class service allowed us to enjoy more of the beauty that is the BVI. Captain Levi made sure that we wanted for nothing and brought us to new places–a great combo of stunning beaches and snorkeling spots. The crew set us up for fun. No more worrying about details like car rentals on Anegada or the anchor bridle. It was such a treat and so much fun! Thank you again Levi, Lauren and Ella!
-
This is a very well run base – they made everything so easy for us to pick up and return the boat. They had great supplies waiting for us onboard, called taxi drivers right on time, and helped us enjoy our vacation to the last minute before getting us to the airport on time. We love sailing out of Placencia because they do such a great job!
-
This was an amazing first time sailing adventure. We had some great sailing time to all the amazing spots in the BVI.
Our crew on the Kismet did an awesome job. The food & hospitality was the best. Would highly recommend The Moorings & the sailing cat Kismet & crew. -
We had a wonderful time sailing the British Virgin Islands with our friends and the crew of a sailing catamaran. The BVI are, of course, beautiful, the boat was very comfortable, the food was excellent, and Captain Anis and Chef Tery were amazing. Anis took us wherever we wanted to go, and he also showed us several great places that we didn’t know about, and we always found a calm place to moor overnight. We enjoyed snorkeling, kayaking, and swimming interspersed with fine dining on Tery’s gourmet meals. Since we expressed an interest in developing our limited sailing skills, Anis let us take the helm, and he showed us how to operate the sails. He even taught us about navigation and reading charts.
Many thanks to Anis and Tery. They made all the difference (as well as devastating Painkillers), and I hope to have an opportunity to sail with them again. -
Myself, my wife and 6 of our friends had an amazing time on Calif83, 4500L. The team at Moorings had the boat ready on time and very clean. Also, very knowledgeable and gave great briefing (I highly recommend taking your time on this, very shallow and reef areas everywhere) This was our first time in Belize and really loved it and the people. We spent 7 days sailing around all the beautiful islands and did some day and night scuba diving off South Water Kay (Highly recommend). The fishing was fantastic, Moorings rents poles and lures. Hideaway Kay was also a great stop, Dustin, Kim and their daughter were great hosts of their beautiful island, we played guitar and sang in their restaurant, Kim is an amazing chef and cooked up our fish for us!
WE WILL BE BACK! So much more to explore!
Thanks, Moorings, for everything.Loved it!
Captain Walt, Jenn and Friends.

Have chartered with the moorings about 7 times. Always excellent service,clean boats,willing to help with any issue. Can’t imagine a better charter company.
-
This was such an amazing trip. We chartered a 45ft catamaran with 2 other couples. There is plenty of room to spread out. The staff was very responsive to a few issues that arose. Top notch.
-
Our captain Levi and crew members Lee and Ella were absolutely fantastic. I can’t say enough about the level of service they provided. The boat was amazing and had multiple areas to sit and relax so we never felt cramped. The food on board was always fresh and delicious and the drinks were great as well! We are already planning to book our next adventure with the Moorings!
-
We had a group of 8, 4 couples on a 464 PC. Check-in was seamless. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our boat was ready several hours before our sleep aboard started at 6pm. So they let us board early and unpack our things. They assisted with the delivery of provisions and the boat was clean, tidy, and ready to go! Shak was great to work with the next morning as our Briefer. He was there at 830 am so we could get out on the water by 930am. The boat ran great with very few issues that didn’t delay us!
Vanessa Campbell, who I book with every year was awesome to work with again!
-
The British Virgin Islands were so beautiful and visiting them on a catamaran was and experience I will never forget! Our itinerary was flexible and tailored to our requests, our crew was amazing and the food was gourmet quality!
-
We were invited to enjoy a bucket list trip of a lifetime with good friends on “Seas The Day”, with Captain Andy, First Mate and Chef Linzi (Captain Andy’s wife). Captain Andy and Linzi ensured we enjoyed this excursion, offering us the best that could possibly be offered. The yacht was well maintained and cared for. Captain Andy prepared a beautiful tour of the islands and First Mate Linzi prepared equally beautiful and delicious meals for us. We were treated to snorkeling stops along the way and shuttled to the different beaches where we enjoyed days at resorts and secluded beaches. Every afternoon we were treated to Chef Linzi’s “Nibbles” and a “Captains Cocktail”, prepared by Captain Andy to enjoy the BVI sunsets by. If you get the opportunity to enjoy an excursion like this, I would highly recommend The Moorings and if you’re really fortunate, you may be able to ask for and be treated to the best time with Captain Andy and First Mate Linzi.

It’s hard to beat The Moorings for planning a BVI sailing or power catamaran trip. Many choices of boats and a well established company with a great reputation.
Our departure was a bit delayed due to the sail cat not being ready on time but Lindsey compensated for the time lost.
-
When we were told this would be the vacation of a lifetime, I was excited but not prepared for what was to come. I cannot think of one thing that The Moorings or our constantly smiling and happy crew – Captain Kenrick, chef Vicki and Steward Maddie – could have done to make this trip any better or more memorable! The food, the guidance on where we were going and seeing, what to expect the next day, the 24/7 service, the immediate friendship and bond we felt with the crew were experiences to note. We literally feel like they are family now! If you’re on the fence about whether to take this adventure, go ahead and JUMP off the fence and BOOK NOW! We can’t wait to go again! Enjoy!
-
We had such a great time on our recent catamaran trip with the Moorings. Our captain, JP was fantastic and helped make our trip a lifetime memory. The moorings facility was outstanding and just overall such an amazing trip.
-
This was our 6th Moorings bareboat charter to BVI and was again impressed by the staff and vessel (534PC.) We arrived for our sleep aboard option the same evening as hurricane Ernesto did. Our boat was not available as all slips were taken by the recalled charters, so they put us up in the Mariner. We lost 1 day of cruising as the Moorings team put the marina back together. The second day our boat was ready, provisions were aboard, and we headed out for another amazing week in these beautiful islands. Thank you to the Tortola staff!!
-
Our second sail from Agana was better than the first if that’s possible. We revisited 3 harbors and 4 new ones recommended by our skipper; all picturesque harbor towns with great restaurants and shopping.
-
This was our second BVI charter with Captain Andy and Chef Linzi aboard the Moorings 50′ catamaran “Seas The Day.” I didn’t think it possible that our enjoyment of this week-long sail could surpass our previous trip, but Andy and Linzi somehow raised the bar. Andy leverages his vast knowledge of the BVI and his sailing prowess to provide a carefree trip thoughtfully customized to the preferences of his passengers. Whether you want to visit the liveliest bars, snorkel the best reefs, relax on the most peaceful beaches, or just float peacefully in a gorgeous bay, Andy’s meticulous planning and sailing will ensure you arrive at every destination ahead of the crowds with an available mooring ball waiting (often the best mooring ball). Complementing (maybe surpassing? 😉 Andy’s meticulous attention to detail is Linzi’s cooking. Her expertly prepared, delicious meals are as enjoyable to view as they are to eat. Of particular note, also, is Andy’s and Linzi’s keen ability to “read the room” to create a comfortable, happy vibe for all on board; not an easy feat when hosting groups with a wide array of personality types and interests like ours! Andy and Linzi have our ringing endorsement.

I can’t say enough good things about my catamaran trip! The BVIs are absolutely stunning, with so many incredible spots to visit—you really can’t go wrong.
However, it was the crew of Funky Miracle who made this vacation truly exceptional. Captain Robin and First Mate/Chef Sophie went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. They were warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail, from helping us plan the perfect itinerary to ensuring our comfort throughout the journey.
Sophie’s cooking was both delicious and healthy, and she kept the boat—including our quarters—spotless. Robin was not only a patient and highly skilled captain, but he also had a hidden talent for crafting amazing blended drinks!
If (or rather, when) I take another trip, I would request Robin and Sophie without hesitation.
-
We had a perfect trip, the professionalism and hospitality provided by the crew was amazing. Robin and Sophie are top professionals in their craft. We felt respected, accommodated. It was a joy.
