Is November a good time for a BVI yacht charter?

Yes, November is a good time for a BVI yacht charter, sitting in the quiet gap between hurricane season and the winter rush. The Atlantic hurricane season officially runs through November 30, but late-season storms rarely reach the Virgin Islands, and by mid-month the trade winds are settling back in. Expect air temperatures in the mid-80s Fahrenheit and water around 82. The anchorages tell the real story. Moorings at Jost Van Dyke and the Baths that fill by 3pm in February sit half empty in November. Many yachts also price November below the mid-December to April high season, so the value is genuine. The one exception is Thanksgiving week, which books up months ahead. See the British Virgin Islands destination guide for itinerary ideas.
