Peace on Jost and Plenty of Goodwill to go Around at Foxy's for New Years
Be part of the biggest two-day New Year’s party in the Caribbean. Great Harbour is the destination and Foxy’s is the place.
“Just come and live life,” invites Foxy Callwood, a 7th generation Jost Van Dyker, famous calypsonian, and owner with wife Tessa of Foxy’s Tamarind Bar and Foxy’s Taboo.
Eat, drink, and be merry with non-stop entertainment both on Old Year’s Night. “At Foxy’s, there’s always special entertainment for this special night of the year,” says Dick Martin, who’s helping to organize the festivities. “At least two, if not three local area bands are featured to provide non-stop music from dusk until dawn. And there are always special performances by Foxy himself. Whether in Foxy's Outback concert venue or beach front, there's a band playing and drinks flowing. Then, the first day of the New Year is reserved for recovery.”
Food and drink-wise, Martin says, “Great food and its presentation is where Foxy’s shines. A Caribbean barbecue is offered on the beachfront level, complete with ribs, chicken and freshly caught fish complemented by garden vegetables. For those who get their reservations in early, feast on a five-course, full-service seafood and meat dinner served on the bar’s private second level, the Upper Crust dining area. The dinner will also include top shelf spirits, party favors and a terrific view of the Outback band. It's a dinner and entertainment evening that will go down in your memory book.”
As for libations to ring in the New Year, Martin adds, “Foxy’s own brew is on tap, as well as his legendary Pain Killers, Dread Fox and Sly Fox libations.”
Over at Foxy’s Taboo, located on Diamond Cay, Martin says, “There will be a lovely dinner with a local band providing the music for a ‘just perfect’ romantic evening. There will be transportation to and from Foxy's Great Harbour so that you can also join the Big Party if you like.”
To get to Jost for New Year’s, take your own boat or hop on one of the public ferries that runs between the island and Tortola, St. Thomas and St. John.
Martin adds, “Sailors are advised to anchor early in Great Harbour and get squared away in anticipation of a great event to welcome in the New Year.”
