Day 8

After a relaxed breakfast followed by a tot of fine rum to ease the pain, we set sail back to departure point. Lets not talk about this day…

The British Virgin Islands are great to sail all year round. The majority visits the islands between end of October and middle of July. In the major Hurricane months August and September Allure is not chartering.

The Virgin Islands have a nice subtropical climate with temperatures from 75 to 85 Fahrenheit in the winter and from 80 to 90 Fahrenheit in the summer. The trade winds ensure a nice cool breeze. Water temperatures are constantly around 77 Fahrenheit.

Because of the Sir Francis Drake Channel and the outside islands the VI are very protected against the Atlantic swell. Therefor the sea is very clear, turquoise and warm. The tradewinds bring constant winds: in the summer from southeast with 3-4 Bft, and in winter from northeast with 4-6 Bft.
