Travel Tips
Once you’ve booked your crewed yacht charter, it’s time to plan your trip to the U.S Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, or St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Multiple airlines in the U.S. schedule regular flights to Nassau and St. Vincent.
Getting to Nassau
Direct flights to Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS), Nassau, are offered by Delta, United, American, and Air Canada airlines. Our crew picks you up at Palm Cay. We can help arrange private transportation from the airport if needed, although this is not included in the charter fee. We provide this service for most guests and discuss this option with travelers when they book their charters.
Getting to USVI/BVI
You can fly from the U.S. to the USVI easily from many locations and remain within this safe U.S. Territory. Our yacht can pick you up on St. Thomas after a quick cab ride from the Cyril E. King Airport.
For the BVI, you can fly to Terrance B. Lettsome Airport (EIS), which is the main airport in the British Virgin Islands. The airport is on Beef Island, which is linked to Tortola Island by the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge. You can arrange for public transportation from the airport to Nanny Cay, which is a 30-minute drive, or we can arrange private transportation to the yacht for an additional fee.
Getting to St. Vincent
Argyle International Airport (AIA) is located on St. Vincent—the largest island in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Airlines in several eastern U.S. cities fly directly to St. Vincent, and indirect flights often connect from nearby islands such as Grenada and St. Lucia. Again, we can arrange private transportation to the yacht for an additional fee.
Getting to Montenegro & Croatia
If you’re booking a crewed yacht charter for Montenegro, the Tivat Airport (TIV) is a short, 10-minute drive to the Port of Kotor, where you’ll board Synergy. You can arrange for your own transportation, or we can provide private transportation for a fee.
You can also fly into Dubrovnik Airport in southern Croatia or Split Airport, 230 kilometers north of Dubrovnik and the largest airport in Croatia. The drive from Dubrovnik Airport to Kotor takes approximately 90 minutes, while driving from Split to Kotor will take more than 4 hours.
