Book Reviews of Cruising Guide to the Virgin Islands, 13th ed
Book Review: A Great Buy!
Summary: 4 Stars
My boyfriends parents are going to be travelling to the Virgin Islands next spring, so for father's day, we bought his dad this travel guide. The book is packed full of information! They said they were glad that they got this book ahead of time because it will be great to use as a reference for their trip!Book Review: The BVI Bible - don't leave home without it
Summary: 5 Stars
The Scott's Guides are the definitive authority on sailing in the Caribbean or anywhere a charter boat sailor may wish to go. Seriously, don't attempt a sailing vacation without consulting the Cruising Guides. CGVI is up to date information on every anchorage in the Virgin Islands.

Book Review: Hidden Treasures
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I sailed the BVI just last month and this little tome opened to us some very fine places to stay and some interesting sites to see. Whatsmore, it offered detailed instructions on how to enter ports-of-call and where to anchor or moor. Very valuable to those who don't know all the coves and inlets.
We were only a little surprised to see that at least one charter company places this booklet in all their fleet, it being the most authoritative book on the subject.
We also appreciated how easy to read and how well the book was laid out. I'd buy from this author again.
Book Review: Not very in depth guide
Summary: 2 Stars
This guide only gives basic information about cruising the Virgin Islands. It's not much better than the free guides that are given out and supported entirely by ads. It only gives information on islands where a commercial interest has supported the write up. It only gives a mention of islands or anchorages where some one is collecting a fee, so if there is a secluded spot that is free you won't read about it here. It doesn't provide any critique on establishments so you won't know if you are walking into the best restaurant on the island or a complete dump. I don't know if there are better guides for the Virgin Islands but it is a poor example of a cruising guide. Book Review: A Magazine...
Summary: 3 Stars
Did not like the way the author designed the book, full of VI advertising. Artikels are shallow. Hope that the essentials are accurate as I am on may way to the BVIs.
