Top 4 beachfront heavens of the BVI

Virgin Islands Property and Yacht Magazine has just published in article with the top 4 beachfront heavens. And the winners happen to all be destinations we cater to with our 32 FS Regulator Powerboat. While the first 3 can be easily combined into a day trip, Saba Rock is a bit far out and we are not sure it is worth to go all the way to bitter end just for Saba Rock, if you want to go to Virgin Gorda you will surely want to also see the Baths and some of the other sights….

Day Trip St. John – Virgin Gorda – Jost (video)

Here are some photos and a video from this weeks powerboat charter trip  St. John – Virgin Gorda – Jost van Dyke. It was quite a rough day with 5ft swell at 10seconds and 25knots of headwind, but the guests were happy and head a great time. We left Cruz Bay at 9:00 AM, passing beautiful Stade Amsterdam and checked into the customs at Tortola Westend. We pulled out of Soper’s Hole but were hitting some hard waves on the North Shore, so Captain Tyler decided to the take the route South of Tortola which was more comfortable.

Arriving at Virgin Gorda we went straight to the word famous Baths, first having some drinks on board, then going for a swim to the shore and a hike around the boulders. From there we went straight to Jost van Dyke to finish off the day with painkillers at Soggy Dollar Bar. Check out the video below.

Our St. John powerboat “Wahoo Wa'” is a 32FS Regulator with Twin Yamaha 250s. It  is 32ft long and has forward-facing, cushioned seating and  provides a comfortable, stable, usually dry  ride from rock to rock. Our Powerboat has plenty of space and extras like colored exterior lights, sound system with iphone connector, GPS, chart plotter etc.

We have Coast Guard approved and up to date safety gear: life jackets (adult and children), 2 VHF radios, field medical kit etc. to keep you and your loved ones safe. A five step ladder provides easy access in and out of the water.

It is moored in Cruz Bay, St. John, USVI in front of the Grande Bay Resort.

After about 19 trips to every store on island to get parts etc. it is all done and the boat will be back in the water tommorrow, ready for the next charter trip! We would love to take you out! Fancy going to Jost van Dyke or Virgin Gorda on a day trip? Read More

Our new Charter Boat – it’s finally here….

new-boat

After weeks of waiting, our new powerboat, a 32 FS Regulator, finally made it’s way from Hilton Head down to St. Thomas, where we picked it up on Tuesday, safely without any damages or items missing, just very dirty from the long journey. And it had an empty round on the dashboard. Not sure we want to know where that came from…. Read More

Why Rockhoppin’ ?

We islanders call our island “rock”. Rockhoppin’ Adventures will take you from rock to rock, island to island, exploring the most spectacular places in the USVI and BVIs, either via Paddleboard (SUP) or on our 32 foot charter boat on a private charter for the day.

 

That’s why we decided to call our company Rockhoppin’ Adventures LLC which is the mother for Rockhoppin’ Charters and SUP St. John.
