Sandy Spit (off Little Jost Van Dyke)

Tiny sand cay reached only by boat. Riders launch from the lee side, so trades are offshore, and boat support is needed. It is busy with charter boats and swimmers mid-morning to afternoon, so go early or late.

Remote spot: not recommended for beginners or intermediates.Help is far away if something goes wrong. Only ride here if you're experienced and self-sufficient: go with a buddy, arrange boat support, and tell someone your plan.
