Discover Jost Van Dyke After Dark
Jost Lime & Dine, the opening act of the celebrated BVI Food Fete culinary event series, was created to showcase the vibrant culinary culture and nightlife of Jost Van Dyke. Thanks to a specially arranged 10:45pm ferry departure from Jost Van Dyke by New Horizon Ferry, visitors and residents on Tortola can now enjoy dinner and evening entertainment on Jost Van Dyke. Usually, only guests staying overnight on Jost Van Dyke, could experience the island’s evening offerings.
“We worked closely with the Jost Van Dyke community to find ways to support local businesses, and the consensus was that a late ferry service would be transformative,” said Clive L. McCoy, Director of Tourism. “Combining Jost Van Dyke’s legendary beach bar scene with its delicious dining options inspired the concept of Jost Lime & Dine. Continuing the success of last year’s promotion, we are thrilled to see that once again fifteen of the island’s restaurants will participate in this year’s promotion.”
Fifteen renowned establishments have joined the 2025 edition of Jost Lime & Dine, including:
- Tipsy Shark
- Pinky’s Delight
- Foxy’s Taboo
- Foxy’s Tamarind Bar
- Cool Breeze
- Coco Loco’s
- Hendo’s Hideout
- Sydney’s Peace and Love
