We advise to book your ferry in advance from Aquatic Rentals. Click Book Now and select the Red Hook departure location. Then select the Red Hook to West End option. If you are taking one of our recommended flights, you should select the 2:30pm departure option. Depending on your return flight, please do what time option is best for you on Sunday but please leave ample time to catch your flight! You will need to provide your passport information as you will go through Customs on the ferry.

Private Water Taxis:

There are several water taxi companies that will provide you with ground transportation from baggage claim to the dock. They will also take care of all your BVI Customs & Immigration paperwork while you relax on the boat with a cold beverage in hand. While a bit pricier than a ferry, it is a smooth and easy transfer from USVI to BVI! We recommend using Chillout Charters or Island Time Water Taxi. Soper's Hole is the closest drop-off to Long Bay.

REMINDER:

Passport is required for travel between BVI and USVI.
