It is one of the most common concerns we hear — and it almost never becomes a real problem in the BVI.

The waters are calm

Passages between islands are short and anchorages are protected from ocean swells. You are not crossing open water. A catamaran is also significantly more stable than a monohull sailboat — the wide platform between the two hulls creates a level, comfortable ride that most guests find genuinely pleasant.

Come prepared anyway

If you have experienced motion sickness before, bring Dramamine, Bonine, or Sea-Band acupressure wristbands. Take medication before departure rather than waiting to feel ill. The crew typically carries medication onboard as well.

If you feel uncomfortable underway

Sit on deck in the open air, look at the horizon, and stay out of the cabin. Fresh air and a fixed focal point are the most effective natural remedies. Most guests are genuinely surprised at how smooth the sailing actually is.
