Voyage To Paradise

It may be summer, but now is a great time to plan your winter cruise to the Caribbean. The Cruising Guide to the Virgin Islands is up to date for 2017-18. Designed as an adjunct to navigational charts, it includes what to expect upon arrival, navigation information, harbor charts, marine parks, GPS waypoints, anchorages, suggested itineraries, restaurants and ferry services. The guide covers the U.S. and British Virgin Islands: St. Croix, St. Thomas, St. John, Jost Van Dyke, Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Anegada and the islands in between. There’s also a section about passages from the Virgins to the Leeward Islands. All are illustrated with color photographs and diagrams. (Cruising Guide Publications, $35)
