"Red Until you’ve snorkeled or gone scuba diving in the gin-clear waters of the BVI, you’ve only seen half of the picture of this paradise. Beneath all that beautiful blue water lies a world of swaying red and pink corals, purple sea fans, fish in every hue of the rainbow, sea turtles, and many other marine wonders. Sail Caribbean Divers offers regular trips to popular reef and wreck diving sites, including the wreck of the former royal mail ship, the RMS Rhone , one of the most legendary sunken shipwrecks in all of the Caribbean. But you don’t need a scuba tank to see the underwater beauty of the BVI. One of the best snorkeling spots is The Indians , a collection of pinnacles that rise from the ocean just off Norman Island. Sea fans wave in the mild current and damsel fish, wrasse, and bar jacks patrol the vertical wall. The Caves is another top dive site where you can swim in crystal-clear water along the shore’s edge, ducking in and out of the namesake shallow caves to see schools of iridescent minnows sheltering inside.

The Freedom of Chartering a Catamaran in the British Virgin Islands

"From atop the breezy hill we have a bird's-eye view of Virgin Gorda—a voluptuous volcanic island so named because Columbus thought its profile looked like an overweight woman lying on her side."

You must go, you must go. I have been to British Virgin Islands many times but I decided to go convergent Gorda and it is absolutely stunning. One of the nicest things I ever seen in my life.

Beautiful Island that I will always consider my second home. My son lives on Virgin Gorda, so there is that BUT other than that, it is literally paradise!!!! Best for traveling with friends and family!! So much to see, experience and do!! I never do excursions so I wouldn't really know about that topic but even just touring around on your own, Google search will give you all you need to know!!! You have to go and experience it

This was one of the ports on our cruise in April. We had so much fun exploring the different caves and climbing the rock formations at the Baths. It was sad when we got to the tender docks though. There was so much devastation from the hurricanes. I will say, that you can hire a cab to take you to the baths rather than paying for an excursion from the cruise ship.

This place is such a paradise where there is a good for snorkeling with fantastic sea. Although it is a little difficult to get to the island, it is well worth it

Beautiful Island. They are in the process of rebuilding from the Hurricane and it's all starting to come back together. The people are very friendly.

Great day trip experience and overall very beautiful. I didn't find it as enjoyable as St John USVI, but it was still worth the trip. Pro tip: Don't forget your passport if you're visiting from one of the U.S. Islands, because Gorda is a UK territory.
