The take-your-breath-away beauty of an island archipelago.
Promise yourself a holiday in the British Virgin Islands. When you want the take-your-breath-away beauty of an island archipelago. When you need the sand and the sea and their associated pleasures. And when you want to be pampered in hideaway resorts with world-class facilities on magnificent beaches. In the British Virgin Islands you can indulge in a little independent island hopping. Seek out deserted beaches where you can soak up the sun, hike along shady mountain trails or drop into a thatched beach bar only accessible by boat. Most of the fifty islands are hilly and volcanic, rich in attractions like The Baths on Virgin Gorda, where immense boulders on the beach create magical grottos and pools. Discover casual beach bars on Jost Van Dyke, just a twenty minute boat ride from Tortola - a lure in itself with delights such as the Botanic Gardens and Sage Mountain National Park. The first-class resorts all offer a number of crescent-shaped, white sandy beaches and excellent cuisine accompanies the quiet, relaxing evenings. To complete the island experience, charter a fully-crewed yacht and choose your own itinerary, dropping anchor at leisure and moving on at will - a holiday with a difference, whether it be for a romantic special occasion or an experience to share with friends or family. Flights to the British Virgin Islands are available with local airlines from Antigua - perhaps you'll add a few days there before or after your unforgettable holiday on these paradisiacal islands.
The Baths at Virgin Gorda – A surreal collection of granite boulders strewn across palm-lined beaches at the south western tip of Virgin Gorda. National Parks – 28 parks encompassing a stunning array of land and marine areas including historic sites, tropical forests, bird sanctuaries and one of the world's most famous shipwrecks. The most popular area for sailing in the Caribbean – Charter a yacht for your own exclusive cruise. One of the world’s top dive destinations – Endless collections of wrecks and rocks to explore. World class marlin fishing.
