Halcyon – Luxury Fountaine Pajot 51 Crewed Yacht Charter in the British Virgin Islands

Experience the beauty of the British Virgin Islands aboard Halcyon, a spacious Leopard 51 power catamaran offering a relaxing crewed BVI yacht charter vacation for up to 8 guests. Designed for comfort, outdoor living, and effortless island hopping, Halcyon is an excellent choice for families, couples, and groups of friends looking to explore the BVI from the privacy of their own yacht.

With her generous interior accommodations, expansive deck spaces, and collection of water toys, Halcyon provides the perfect home base for discovering Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, Norman Island, Cooper Island, and the many secluded bays and beaches throughout the British Virgin Islands.

Guest Cabin Layout

Halcyon accommodates 8 guests in four private queen cabins, all featuring their own en-suite bathrooms for added comfort and privacy:

  • 1 Primary Suite with queen bed and private en-suite bathroom
  • 3 VIP Queen Cabins, each with a queen bed and private en-suite bathroom
  • Fully air-conditioned guest accommodations

The four-cabin layout makes Halcyon especially well suited to groups who appreciate having comfortable, private accommodations while enjoying a shared luxury BVI catamaran vacation.

Water Toys & Onboard Fun

A crewed yacht charter in the British Virgin Islands is all about spending time on—and in—the water. Halcyon offers a fun selection of equipment for snorkeling, exploring, paddling, fishing, and enjoying the warm Caribbean sea:

  • 2 Sea Scooters
  • 2 Stand-Up Paddleboards (SUPs)
  • Kneeboard
  • Towable Tube
  • Floating Mat
  • Snorkeling Gear
  • Fishing Gear
  • Beach Games
  • Floating Noodles

Use the sea scooters to explore beneath the surface, paddle into a quiet anchorage by SUP, snorkel among colorful tropical fish, or simply relax on the floating mat with the Caribbean as your backdrop.

Explore the BVI Aboard Your Own Private Yacht

The British Virgin Islands are one of the Caribbean’s premier destinations for a crewed yacht charter vacation, with short cruising distances allowing guests to spend more time swimming, snorkeling, dining ashore, and exploring the islands.

Your itinerary aboard Halcyon can take you from the famous granite boulders and clear waters of The Baths on Virgin Gorda to the legendary beach bars of Jost Van Dyke, the snorkeling caves of Norman Island, and peaceful anchorages tucked throughout the Sir Francis Drake Channel.

For travelers searching for an 8-passenger BVI yacht charter, Halcyon combines the space and stability of a Leopard 51 power catamaran with private en-suite accommodations, plenty of water activities, and the freedom to experience the British Virgin Islands at your own pace.

Chef's Review:

We were a large family group ranging in age from 10 to 80, and every single one of us was absolutely blown away by how incredible the food was. Everything we tried was a taste sensation, and it was almost impossible to choose a favorite. The cucumber salad was outstanding, and the panna cotta was honestly the most delicate and delicious I have ever tasted — it simply melted in your mouth. We will definitely be back
