British Virgin Islands

The British Virgin Islands are an archipelago of more than 60 islands and cays, each unique in character, many of them unspoiled and untouched. With pristine beaches garlanded with coral reefs, sheltered bays and coves, spectacular arrays of boulders, crystal pools, lush green valleys and rolling hills, sweeping down to sandy beaches.

The two islands with the most name recognition are Tortola, known for its gorgeous mountain scenery and boating, and Virgin Gorda, known for the Rockefellers's exclusive Little Dix Bay resort and for the "Baths" (huge granite boulders, caverns, grottoes, and pools). Of course, other peers are noteworthy, too. There's Anegada , a nearly deserted isle with a marvelous bird sanctuary and Pearl white, powdery beaches wrapped all around the Island. Jost Van Dyke which is known world wide for FOXY'S BAR ON THE BEACH and their New Year Parties. Then there is Norman Island: said to be the model for Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. And there's a wealth of smaller islands, completely unspoiled, with names like Scrub Island, Prickly Pear Island, Mosquito Island, Great Dog and Dead Man's Chest.
