Awaiting your pleasure just 50 miles east of Puerto Rico are 63 islands, islets and cays (many uninhabited) known familiarly as the BVI.
The British Virgin Islands are a sailor's and diver's paradise, with steady trade winds, tropical landscapes, jagged peaks towering above white sandy beaches, aquamarine waters, and breathtaking underwater realms.
The capital, Road Town, on the main island of Tortola where most visitors arrive, has a distinct West Indian flavor, with low-key Caribbean nightlife. It is a popular destination for yachtsmen, water sports enthusiasts, and divers.
The breathtaking Virgin Gorda is a favorite stop-over due to its unusual topography and ultra laid back lifestyle. The island’s most popular site awaits along the coast where huge boulders lie sunken into the sands, and the water is so soothing, the spot is named The Baths.
Finally, there is the quiet seclusion of Peter Island, which offers a self-contained resort, yacht club, secluded beaches, and picnic spots.
The British Virgin Islands are also home to the Caribbean's top wreck dive, the famous RMS Rhone. A variety of activities such as rainforest hikes, mountain biking, sea kayaking, horseback riding, sailing, and windsurfing are also available for you to enjoy.
