Here in the Usvi now, there were basically two options:
I could take a ferry, round trip, on Thursdays or Sundays, 8am out, 3pm return. Going rate was $80 for the ferry, plus $40 BVI entry free (cost of customs). For four people, that would be $480.
Alternatively, I can charter a boat for about $600, and take up to 6 people to all of the islands- Jost, Tortolla, and Virgin Gorda, on my schedule. Technically, the break even point would be at 5 people, but that value proposition is fairly compelling.

I can really only comment on item 3 since I was on a private sailboat in the BVIs so that's how we moved around, but I would say if you can figure it out, it is worth seeing. The Baths and Devil's Beach are both beautiful and worth spending time at. Bring snorkel equipment and food. There is a bar near the entrance to the Baths, but I think it's pretty limited. Have a great trip, it's a beautiful area!
