There are two ways to travel to Tortola in the British Virgin Islands (BVI):

1. Fly to San Juan, PR (SJU airport code) and then catch a commuter flight to Terrance B. Lettsome Airport in Tortola, BVI (EIS airport code) on Beef Island. You will need to arrive the day before to make the noon boarding on Sunday. We will have our driver at the airport to meet you and take you to your hotel. You can pay the driver in cash, U.S. dollars accepted. This is much easier than a cab and more reliable. If you are staying at a hotel in Road Town, you will be picked up at 11:45am on Sunday (or another time will be assigned to you if necessary). Please list the name of your hotel on your Trip Application so we can confirm your pick up time.

2. Fly to Cyril E. King Airport in St. Thomas, USVI (STT airport code ) and take a ferry to Road Town, Tortola, BVI. You will need to fly to St. Thomas on Saturday and spend the night there. Check the ferry schedule upon arrival (your hotel concierge can assist) to confirm the departure times for Sunday, the next day. You will clear into the BVI at the dock. Have your passport ready! Call or text Kim at 284.499.1999 upon departing the St. Thomas dock so she can send our driver to the ferry terminal in Road Town to pick you up. Let her know your name, number in your party and time the ferry departed.

This is important so she can arrange for the driver to arrive on time and not have to wait in case your ferry is delayed. Cuan Law boards at 12 noon so the driver will take your luggage to the Cuan Law and arrange a time and place to pick you up for boarding if you are earlier. You can eat a late breakfast, shop and explore the Road Town Tortola area for a few hours. The cost is $10.00* USD for luggage delivery and transfer.

We do not recommend plans that involve catching the ferry to Tortola on Saturday because air travel can be tenuous and you may miss the last ferry! That would leave you stranded in St. Thomas with a hotel room in Tortola! Better to stay in St. Thomas and catch the early ferry. The cost of the transfer from the dock directly to Cuan Law is $7.00* USD per person.

If arriving or departing by ferry, port fees, security fees, and departure taxes are generally not included in the cost of your ferry tickets. Port fees are currently $10.00* USD from St. Thomas to Tortola. Fees from Tortola to St. Thomas are $20.00* USD for non-residents. BVI Environmental Fee is $10.00* USD. The ferry operators do not have any control over these fees; they are subject to change by their respective governmental authorities.
