Overview of the Area

The Virgin Islands, divided into the U.S. Virgin Islands and the British Virgin Islands, are a sailor’s paradise. With steady trade winds, clear blue waters, and a remarkable diversity of islands, they are one of the world’s most popular sailing destinations.

• On St. Thomas, the historic city of Charlotte Amalie is well worth a visit. Known for its colonial architecture, charming shops, and panoramic views from Paradise Point.

• The island of Jost Van Dyke is a favorite among sailors, offering three fantastic anchorages: White Bay, Great Harbour, and Little Harbour. Named after Dutch pirate Joost van Dyke, the island has only about 300 inhabitants.

• Sombrero Island is the furthest island included in this chart coverage and belongs to the British territory of Anguilla. This uninhabited island is home to many rare animal species and, at just 1.5 km long, can be explored quickly.

The Virgin Islands region is known for its numerous reefs and shallow areas. Careful navigation and up-to-date nautical charts are essential.

Tip: With NV Charts Caribbean 12.2 and 12.3, you can also explore the Windward and Leeward Islands further east. NV Charts Caribbean 11.1 covers the islands west of the Spanish Virgin Islands, reaching to the Dominican Republic.
