Stella Mare Sailing Catamaran — Lagoon 55 Private Charter Experience

Tortola's Terrance B. Lettsome Airport (EIS) places Nanny Cay Marina a quick 15-minute taxi ride from arrival gates, whilst guests arriving via St. Thomas (STT) typically transfer by private water taxi to rendezvous directly with the tender—both options allow same-day embarkation aboard Stella Mare.

Key Logistics at a Glance

Embarkation windows, provisioning schedules, and regulatory paperwork are optimised for comfort: customs clearance for BVI-bound guests can be coordinated before departure, provisioning is completed the day prior to sailing, and the crew manages BVI fishing licence formalities so guests can start fishing immediately. Charter itineraries commonly include 6–8 hour daily cruising segments between anchorages to balance sailing and shore time.

Why Choose Stella Mare

Stella Mare, a 2025 Lagoon 55, is configured for privacy and parity—ideal for groups of four couples, multi-generational families, or friends celebrating milestones. The layout minimises “bad cabins” with equivalent ensuite arrangements, and the expansive flybridge delivers panoramic social space without compromising sailing performance.

Arrival & Onshore Transfers

Concierge coordination ensures a smooth transfer from arrival airport to tender: for EIS passengers a short taxi delivers you to Nanny Cay Marina, while STT arrivals can be met by private water taxi, bypassing public ferry queues and expediting boarding time. Luggage handling, provisioning notes, and any medical or mobility accommodations are handled pre-boarding to maximise your time on the water.

Comparison: Private Charter Advantages

Compared with hotel-based holidays, a private crewed charter eliminates fixed schedules, reduces exposure to crowds, and transforms travel time into part of the experience—sailing to remote coves, private beach lunches, and timed snorkel sessions make every day unique.
