Frenchman’s Reef is pleased to unveil its diverse fleet of private excursion vessels and non-motorized water sports activities, which will be available to guests of its two resorts—including the newly opened Morningstar Buoy Haus Beach Resort at Frenchman’s Reef, Autograph Collection and The Westin Beach Resort & Spa at Frenchman’s Reef, opening later this summer. Offering eight excursion vessels for various day and night adventures alongside a vast selection of non-motorized equipment, Frenchman’s Reef has cultivated an exciting marine program in partnership with RED Hospitality and Leisure for guests of all ages to take advantage of soon.
The fleet of Frenchman’s Reef vessels will be available via the property’s private dock, which will provide access to a multitude of secluded islands and breathtaking marine environments for ample exploration. The fleet of vessels will be utilized for activities including off-site snorkeling, fishing, private-charter pleasure cruises, sunset sails, eco-tours, shopping and dining excursions across the surrounding islands, and more. Operated by RED Hospitality and Leisure, the fleet will include:
Two 38-foot Axopar 37 luxury private charter boats, which each fit up to 10 guests and offer amenities including an onboard bar and lounge.
A 38-foot center console Boston Whaler 370, with capacity for up to 12 passengers, offering an air-conditioned cabin, bar, grill, and extended shade structure.
Two 40-foot VanDutch 40 luxury private charter boats for up to 12 passengers each, with an air-conditioned cabin, dedicated captain, and mate for day excursions.
An Ultimate RIB boat, a luxury adventure vessel spanning 41-feet, accommodating up to 12 guests and offering indoor and outdoor seating for all-weather.
A 57-foot ferry and excursion vessel with a capacity for up to 65 passengers, designed to connect Frenchman’s Reef and St. John and the surrounding islands for day excursions and group transportation.
The Flying Frenchman, a custom 65-foot catamaran that will fit up to 125 passengers for an exciting array of charter sails and private group celebrations. The vessel comes equipped with a galley for hot and cold food service and an air-conditioned cabin, among other amenities. It will also represent the first fly-bridge commercial catamaran in the USVI.
Additionally, Frenchman’s Reef is looking forward to offering customized “stay and sail” options for guests. Part mainland, part sea, the experience will offer a combination package showcasing the best of both worlds. Ideal for families, honeymooners and small parties of any sort, Frenchman’s Reef will provide the excitement and convenience of splitting time between a stay at the two resorts and a multi-night sailing excursion around the Virgin Islands via personal pick-up on the property’s private dock.
Along with this exciting fleet of vessels, Frenchman’s Reef will showcase other non-motorized water sports at its private dock and adventure beach, located alongside The Westin Beach Resort & Spa, featuring programming for all ages. Guests of both resorts seeking more than just relaxation will find abundant excitement with a fleet of Hobie Cats and Kayaks at their disposal. Guests will also enjoy an Aquabana Lounger, assorted beach toys, and 200 sets of snorkel gear to explore the surrounding sparkling Caribbean waters.
While staying at either The Westin Beach Resort & Spa or Buoy Haus, guests also have access to delicious culinary experiences at a combined nine restaurants, WestinWORKOUT® Fitness Studio, the Westin FAMILY Kid’s Club, Heavenly Spa by Westin™ with 13 treatment rooms, a range of pools, and more.
The Westin Beach Resort & Spa and Buoy Haus are operated by Aimbridge Hospitality. More information about Frenchman’s Reef and its aquatic offerings can be found here and by calling 340-249-0100. Additional details will be announced soon.
