Please notify us at info@jostvandyke.com of your travel plans so that we can prepare for your arrival and assist you along the way. Transportation from Tortola to JVD is paid directly to the vendor in cash.
All travel coordination services are general advice for travel. We cannot guarantee connections due to flight changes, weather, boats, customs and unforeseen island circumstances. Most U.S. Airlines fly into St. Thomas from major U.S. cities. Our recommendation for people coming from the U.S. is to fly directly into St. Thomas. Other options are to fly into San Juan, Puerto Rico or St. Martin, then connect to St. Thomas.
Getting around on Jost Van Dyke
On Jost Van Dyke, there are three bays, all facing south, and White Bay, where we are located, is the western most and least inhabited. Serenity and sunsets! “White Bay was named by Condé Nast Traveler Magazine as “one of the 10 best beaches in the world”! Great Harbor, just a 15 minute walk, is the “metropolis” of the island and has a Customs House, ferry dock, and a handful of restaurants; Foxy’s being the most famous. Information about transportation is available in your villa or you are always welcome to contact us with any questions.
Walk – You can walk everywhere on Jost Van Dyke if that fits your skill and comfortability level (we recommend bringing tennis shoes), but if you're in the mood for something a little quicker...
Jeep Rental – We highly recommend renting a jeep from Paradise Jeep Rentals while on Jost Van Dyke in order to explore our whole island. Jost Van Dyke recently built roads to parts of the island which you could not access before. You will find incredible vistas, stunning views, and friendly locals. Pack a picnic and make a day of it.
Dinghy Rental – You can even explore the shoreline of this beautiful unspoiled island by way of dinghy. Please contact us at +1 340-201-4976 or info@jostvandyke.com for more information.
Boat Rentals & Water Taxi – We keep up with the best and most reliable boats for hire. Please contact us at +1 340-201-4976 or info@jostvandyke.com for more information.
