Just received the following message from Dave at Double D Charters in the Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbor. He said, “Two of my three boats survived the hurricanes. My 40′ motor yacht and my 30′ powerboat with twin 250 hp engines were fine and are now back in operation. Sadly our sailboat did not survive (almost no day sailboats did).” Double ‘D’ Charters has putting smiles on their customers faces since 1993. Their small, friendly crew with big experience will take care of you and yours like you were family. They offer trips to Anegada, Cooper Island, Jost Van Dyke and others. Dave added, “Allow us to make your day sailing or sunset cruise an unforgettable experience… Come sail the BVI with us!”

BVI Traveller was created in September of 2017 to help tourism in the British Virgin Islands recover from the devastation wrought by Hurricane Irma.
To that end, we met our goals. In the past 7 years there have been over 1.2 million visits to the website and over 3 million pages have been viewed. There are over 1,000 pages on the site featuring news posts and detailed listings on all hotels, villas, restaurants and sailing charters located in the BVI. The BVI Government and many business, hotels, villas and sailing charters have all agreed that the site “moved the needle on tourism” after Irma.
The site, however, has run its course. It has served its purpose by bringing visitors and local businesses together to rebuild the tourist industry and it is now time to shut down operations for good.
I want to thank everyone for your help and support.
