Amazing Caribbean Sailing Vacation Locations

Our locations on Scrub Island and our Tortola Sailing School at The Moorings base are graduating lots of new cruising sailors these days! At both locations we teach US Sailing certification courses aboard Moorings 39′-48′ monohulls and catamarans, and 37′-50′ powercats. Beautiful Scrub Island Resort, Spa & Marina is where you can Learn to Sail or take our popular Fast Track to Cruising® Course, earning three US Sailing certifications in a week, with live aboard and stay-ashore options! Starting June 2023, American Airlines is offering nonstop flights between Miami International Airport (MIA) to Beef Island/Tortola in the British Virgin Islands (EIS). Outside Baggage Claim at EIS, you will be greeted by a taxi driver with your name to transport you across the parking lot to Trellis Bay where you will take Scrub Island Resort’s complimentary water taxi for approx. 20 minutes to the island oasis! If you are taking a powerboating certification course with us, you will take Moorings’ transportation from EIS to the base in Road Town where you will check-in on Sunday evening and spend the first night aboard at the marina. At the end of your powerboating course, you will need to arrange for a taxi from Moorings base back to EIS airport for your return flight home.
