I think everything you are looking for is in the BVI's. Most of the sailing is in protected waters and easy to do sight navigation. There is almost always a good sailing breeze.

Anegada and Loblolly Bay have spectacular snorkeling. When I was there a month ago there was no one on the beach at Loblolly Bay.

If you are looking for fun bars, you can’t beat the Soggy Dollar on White Bay, Jost Van Dyke. Foxy’s is great, also. There are probably a hundred more sailors on this board who can cite their favorite beach bar in the BVI’s. Unlike years ago, nearly every anchorage now has a beach bar.

I’ve spent several nights on different trips in Lee Bay with no one else in the bay. Stay away from the mooring fields and you will find minimally populated anchorages.
