The British Virgin Islands are a volcanic archipelago consisting of 60 pristine islands located in the Caribbean Sea. The four largest islands; Anegada, Virgin Gorda, Tortola, and Jost Van Dyke are known for their lively history and sublime scenery.

The collection of smaller surrounding islands makes the British Virgin Islands a premier yachting destination. The unique spirit of each island provides a wide array of activities for all ages. Enjoy a tranquil retreat for two, a festive party scene with your closest friends, or experience the perfect playground for the whole family. The unique landscapes vary from white-sand beaches to rugged, hilly terrain offering a palette of diversity for visitors of every shape and form.
The largest island, Tortola, is a hub for novice and experienced yachters alike. The vast list of harbors and protected anchorages around the island makes it easy to take your adventures ashore. Reach new heights by hiking Mount Sage, a 1,781ft (543m) peak that features a drought-tolerant forest. Here you can find species of flourishing ferns and vivid flowers that can only be found on the shaded trails of the mountain. Stroll through the bustling boutiques on Main Street offering handcrafted local products ranging from fragrant spices to glistening jewelry to delicate fabrics. Enjoy the taste of local delicacies like fresh lobster and conch at exquisite ocean-front restaurants. Before heading back to your yacht be sure to listen to a local fungi band. “Fungi” meaning “cook up” is the indigenous form of scratch band music and local name for folk music.
The crystal-clear azure waters adorning the coasts offer exhilarating adventures. Listen to Reggae music wafting across the waves from Bomba’s Shack while you surf in Apple Bay. Snorkel through the maze of coral reefs teeming with varieties of kaleidoscopic fish. Head offshore to the world-renowned fishing locations in hopes of hooking a trophy marlin or tuna. Catch some air as you admire the gentle waters from above while kiteboarding off the shore. With so many exquisite islands and hidden spots to explore, you could get lost in the thrill and adventure of navigating this stunning destination.
