The Yacht Club

The Yacht Club is located in Long Bay, close to the center of Charlotte Amalie, capital of the US Virgin Islands. The area is home to some of the best restaurants in town, as well as a few designer shops. Further west is Frechtown, a neighborhood established in the 19th century by French immigrants, with brightly painted houses and a few good restaurants overlooking the water. Nearby beaches include Magens Bay; Honeymoon Beach on Water Island; and Lindbergh Bay. In the south of Charlotte Amalie there are two small islands: Hassel Island, formerly a peninsula that was separated from mainland where visitors can discover archaeological sites from colonial times; and Water Island, a tranquil residential island with no hotels, public transportation or significant commercial establishments. Water Island’s main attractions are the beaches, including Honeymoon Beach and Limestone Bay, the plantation ruins, and Fort Segarra, an underground fort from World War II.
