It's not much they produce here, but a large part of their rum is even exported. Leave a Comment

If you drive along Ridge Road, through the mountains of Tortola, you come across a wall with beautiful paintings of "the old days", for example when sugar can was cut to produce rum.
It was done by local people of the community, old and young. Really worth seeing! Leave a Comment

 Bay by kyoub
Great views to outlying islands. Guana Island is the island shown in the background of the picture.
Green sea turtles nest here in Jan and Feb.
Well worth a special trip! Swimmers must be cautious about the undertow on certain days. Leave a Comment

 Garden by kyoub
The park gives you a glimpse of a variety of Caribbean flowers and herbs.
The most interesting part is the mini-rainforest with exotic its plants shaded by huge Saman trees.
You will probably spot some birds and lizards there also. Leave a Comment

 Sandy Beach by kyoub
It is on the northeast side of the island. The road leading there is very rough so you really need a 4-wheel drive.
No facitities but there are come cottages nearby. Leave a Comment

If you are into interesting bars that are out of this world, The William Thornton is one of those bars. Norman Island, the William Thornton is a ship so you can only get there by boat. Not for the faint at heart, Greg's favorite line overheard at the William Thornton, "Son, it looks like it's time to drink some tequila."

If you did not sail into the BVI or bring your own boat, then I recomend renting a small power boat or dinghy for a day or two and getting out and about. The islands are really best seen from the water, and there are so many small jewels of land scattered out in the sea that you will miss out if you don't. There are some tiny islands and empty beaches like you have never seen that you can only get to by dinghy. It's worth every penny spent. Leave a Comment

White Bay on Jost Van Dyke, located north of the big island - Tortola, offers a the most stress free day anyone could find anywhere! Swim ashore, buy a painkiller with your soggy dollars, toast a friend, find a hammock, and chill. With a bigger group of friends, it is more fun to procure a hammock from someone else. Your task is to remove them from the hammock, their defense is to stay put, while all try to their best to keep their painkiller from spilling!! And that's is the game called "That's My Hammock" (coined by Pelican, my twin in life). Leave a Comment
