Every person entering the BVI must complete the British Virgin Islands Customs and Immigration portal up to 72 hours before your arrival. Just before arriving at Nanny Cay Marina, please contact the Dockmaster on VHF Channel 16 or 68 so our team can be ready to assist with your lines and give you your slip allocation. The Marina Office is open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., 365 days a year.
Temporary entrance to Nanny Cay
The new entrance to Nanny Cay will be almost at a 90° angle to the old entrance, running parallel to the Tortola shore. This requires limited dredging to create the new channel.
While the dredging work takes place, a new navigation channel into the marina is an operation.

SY Aiyana at the BVI Spring Regatta
;)
Visitors to this year’s 40th Anniversary BVI Spring Regatta (and Nanny Cay’s docks) will be able to marvel at a brand new superyacht that will be competing in the Spinnaker racing fleet. Launched in 2010, Yacht Aiyana is spending its first season in the Caribbean before heading to the Mediterranean for the summer months and will be docked at Nanny Cay Marina for the duration of the regatta. Aiyana will be hard to miss with its 82 foot blue hull and very sleek low profile lines, which give it a very smooth look and style. Designed in New Zealand by the renowned firm Warwick Yacht Design and built by Alia Yachts in Turkey, Aiyana reflects the latest advances in yacht design, technology and interior luxury.
