A year-round perfect climate
and intimate island feel make Jost Van Dyke an attractive Caribbean destination.
A member of the British Virgin Islands, Jost is located five miles north
of St. Thomas/St. John, four miles west of Tortola BVI, and about 60 miles
east of Puerto Rico. About four miles long and a mile or two wide, Jost
offers that personal island feel that larger islands simply can't give.
Everything is smaller, more secluded, and easier to get to. In short, it's
the perfect island getaway.
Only 145 people call Jost
home year-round, keeping the island an unspoiled paradise. There are three
bays on the island, and Pink House sits on White Bay, the least inhabited
spot on Jost. Great Bay Harbor at the center offers a Customs House, ferry
landing, restaurants and taverns. Little Harbor on the East end also offers
a selection of eateries and bars.
Jost is a perfect launching
spot to the bigger islands of St. Thomas/St. John and Tortola. Day trips
to the islands can easily be arranged. Shop for souvenirs in any of the
specialty shops. Sail across the water in a chartered sailing vessel. Scuba
diving offers a close-up look at the island's most spectacular sight -
- the underwater world. Or go home with a sail fish or tuna from your own
private sea fishing expedition. Whatever your aquatic adventure, it can
happen here.
Touted as one of the most
beautiful beaches in the world, White Bay offers unparalleled crystal-clear
water and soft white sand. With only three homes built in the area, White
Bay remains Jost's most exclusive and least inhabited spot to vacation.
Lounge by the water's edge with a pina colada or dive into the warm Caribbean
water. Far from the tourist spots, White Bay guarantees a unique island
experience, lulling you into a slower pace of life, pampering you with
the tropical sunshine and sweet tropical nights. Just steps away from Pink
House, this secluded spot will be your own for as long as you choose to
stay. |
