British Virgin Islands

From wealthy independent travellers to celebrities, this British overseas territory has always been a great escape from mundane day-to-day life. Though it is not suitable for people with a shoestring budget, it continues to be one of the topmost destinations in the Caribbeans.

Geographically it is comprised of 4 primary islands – Tortola and Virgin Gorda being the main islands and Anegada and Jost Van Dyke the other two. Billionaires often visit Tortola on their yachts and party like there’s no tomorrow. Diving the shipwrecks and sailing are the top activities to do. Cane Garden Bay and Brewers Bay are probably the best attractions in Tortola Island. On the other hand, Road Town, the capital of BVI, feels quite dull with limited points of interest to explore.

Virgin Gorda Island is famous for its amazing volcanic rock formations. You can explore ‘the baths’ with its sky-high boulder formations or choose to hike to Gorda Peak for a panoramic bird’s-eye view of the entire island. In Anegada, you will instantly feel the calmness in the atmosphere and the slow pace of life compared to the main islands. The flat, desert landscape will make you think that you are in a different world altogether. Jost Van Dyke is the smallest of the fours islands *

There are a few options for hiking and walking too.

  1. aside from scattered offerings of fish and chips, there’s little that’s overtly British
  2. Most travelers come to hoist a jib and dawdle among the 50-plus isles
  3. With steady trade winds, calm currents, protected bays and pirate-ship bars, this is one of the world’s sailing hot spots.
  4. Main island Tortola is known for its full-moon parties and sailing prowess
  5. Billionaires and yachties swoon over Virgin Gorda and its magical rocks
  6. Anegada floats in a remote reef and has a hammock waiting for those serious about unplugging.
  7. The islands have a quirky edge, and despite all the fancy boats and celebrity visitors, they remain relatively undeveloped.
  8. a self-governing British overseas territory in the Caribbean
  9. a popular travel destination for sailors, fishermen, sun worshippers, and other independent travellers, albeit not for the cost conscious
  10. The British Virgin Islands are composed of more than 60 islands and keys. More than 43 of the islands are uninhabited
  11. the majority are steep volcanic islands (including the main islands, Tortola and Virgin Gorda), and a small number of relatively flat coral islands (such as Anegada and Sandy Spit)
  12. Road Town – capital
    • BVI’s capital is nothing special – there are no mega sights to see or scenery to drop your jaw
    • It’s a perfectly decent place to spend a day or night, and most visitors do exactly that when they charter their own boat or take the ferries to the outlying islands.
  13. The Baths –
    • This collection of sky-high boulders marks a national park and the BVI’s most popular attraction.
    •  The rocks – volcanic-lava leftovers from some 70 million years ago – form a series of grottoes that flood with seawater. 
    • The area makes for unique swimming and snorkeling, but the coolest part is the trail through the ‘Caves’ to Devil’s Bay. 
    • During the 20-minute trek, you’ll clamber over boulders, slosh through tidal pools, squeeze into impossibly narrow passages, then drop onto a sugar-sand beach.
  14. White Bay –
    • This gorgeous long white crescent lies pressed to the sea by steep hills.
    • A barrier reef shelters the water from swells and waves, making for good swimming and a protected anchorage.
    • The beach’s main activities are drinking, wriggling your toes in the sand and people watching.
  15. Josiah’s Bay –
    • An undeveloped gem at the foot of a valley on the north shore, Josiah’s Bay is a dramatic strand that has excellent surf with a point break in winter.
    • Many say it offers Tortola’s best surfing
  16. Cane Garden Bay –
    •  The gently sloping crescent of sand hosts plenty of beachside bars and water-sports vendors renting kayaks and paddleboards. 
    • It’s a popular yacht anchorage, and becomes a full-on madhouse when cruise ships arrive in Road Town and shuttle passengers over for the day
    • It’s the island’s main party beach, but you can’t deny its beauty and good-time vibe. Live bands often rock the bars.
  17. Sage Mountain National Park –
    • At 1716ft, Sage Mountain rises higher than any other peak in the Virgin Islands.
    • Seven trails crisscross the surrounding 92-acre park, including the main path that leaves from the parking lot and moseys up through the greenery to a picnic spot.
    • The park is humid and damp, populated by bo-peep frogs and lizards.
    • The 20ft fern trees and other flora look as though they’re straight out of the age of the dinosaurs
  18. Flamingo Pond –
    • The large salt pond at the island’s west end hosts a flock of greater flamingos.
    • You can’t get close, but you can often see the birds wading on the north side of the pond through the spotting scope at Flamingo Pond Lookout
  19. Cow Wreck Bay –
    • Here’s what you’ll find on dazzling, secluded Cow Wreck beach: the most sea-green water you’ve even laid eyes on, colorful wooden beach chairs under rustling palms, roaming cows, conch shells, a delicious bar-restaurant, bathrooms and maybe even Sir Richard Branson on a kiteboard
  20. The best way to spend the afternoon here is to swim, lounge and then lounge some more.
  21. Loblolly Bay Beach –
    • an idyllic stretch of sand with a few bars, fixed umbrellas for shade
    • You can swim over a widespread area with spotted eagle rays and barracudas.
  22. Savannah Bay –
    • A short distance north of the Valley, Savannah Bay features more than a mile of white sand
    • Except for the beaches of Anegada, no other shore provides such opportunities for long, solitary walks.
    • The water is calm and typically there are very few people about. 
    • There are no facilities and not much shade
  23. Spring Bay –
    • An excellent beach with national-park designation, Spring Bay abuts the Baths to the north.
    • The beauty here is having a Baths-like setting but without the crowds.
    • Hulking boulders dot the fine white sand.
    • There’s clear water and good snorkeling off the area called ‘the Crawl’ (a large pool enclosed by boulders and protected from the sea)
  24. Norman Island –
    • Since 1843, legend has told that treasure is buried on Norman Island, supposedly the prototype for Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island
    • Norman is the BVI’s largest uninhabited landmass
