Sailing, diving, fishing and soaking up the sun on perfect beaches is what it's all about on the 60 idyllic British Virgin Islands. Largest island Tortola, home to capital Road Town, is a 12 by three mile haven of white sand, lush green mountains, ruins and rum distilleries. Underwater caverns beckon from dramatic Virgin Gorda. Island time rules on laid-back Jost Van Dyke, where swim-up bars serve delicious rum concoctions. Pristine beaches lure visitors to beautiful coral island Anegada.

A bay in Virgin Gorda amid enormous granite rocks with warm, shallow water.
I looooved swimming in the sea at this beach. The sand was so soft. Recommend wearing sport sandals or water shoes as there are several rocks getting into the water, as well as large rocks in the water.

This magnificent Virgin Gorda beach, which is adjacent to The Baths, is a great place for snorkeling.
Spring Bay is steps over from the Baths, and is like a little mini Baths. The Baths can get pretty crowded, so if you're looking for the experience of the sheltered coves among the big boulders without the crowds, stop here. There's a picnic table and palm trees...and the whole beach to yourself.

Virgin Gorda's loveliest beach is a long strand of powdery white coastline lapped by placid waters.
Spanish Town, British Virgin Islands – Savannah Beach While our cruise ship docked at Spanish Town we decided to take a taxi to Savannah Beach, which was a short drive away. Taxis charge $5 per person for the trip – you will need to rebook the taxi for the return. Savannah Beach has no facilities save a couple of wooden shelters with integral bench seating so if you want a bar or café, this destination is not for you. We found the almost deserted beach to be the perfect place for a short excursion. The bay is unspoilt, for the greater part surrounded by wooded hills. In the sea there was a sand bar 40 metres out making swimming very safe, even in the lively swell we encountered that morning. A fabulous few hours ashore.

A great place for underwater exploring, this secluded half-mile white sandy beach has reefs close to shore.
This was our first time going to JVD as we were on a cruise excursion. We enjoyed our almost 4 hours of time drinking painkillers, shopping for souvenirs and eating some amazing Mahi Mahi sanwiches at The Soggy Dollar Bar. What made this so great is the absolutely amazing beach area that can be matched up against the best beaches in the Caribbean. Photos are great, but until you can experience this beach in person, they don't do it justice.

Regarded as one of the best shallow dives in the BVIs, these four rocky pinnacles rise and descend roughly the same fifty feet above and below the water surface, which form abundant coral gardens, a 15-foot tunnel, lots of fish and an underwater cavern.
Our Captain was able to position our catamaran relatively close to The Indians. When our group (ages 13 - 70+) swam toward the the archipelago, we snorkeled above beautiful shallow coral reefs; a few minutes later we found ourselves looking down into a bottomless hole brimming with fish of all shapes and sizes and abundant sea life. There was so much for both our snorkelers and scuba divers to see! We totally agree that The Indians should be listed among the five most popular dive and snorkeling sites in the British Virgin Islands.

A small island west of Tortola is prized for its natural botanical gardens and pristine white-sand beaches.
Visited Sandy Cay while on a day charter, and spent a few hours relaxing on its pristine beaches and exploring the untouched nature preserve! My teens enjoyed walking the island, and spotting hermit crabs, bright yellow finches, doves, and the unspoiled beauty. Great place for nature lovers- quiet, peaceful, and certainly enjoyable! There is a VERY strong current getting on and off the island, so parents beware of little ones, who may not be strong swimmers!

The most well-known attraction on the island, these giant boulders or batholiths, brought to the surface by volcanic eruptions, are scattered about forming a beautiful grotto and tranquil pools.
On my family's Star Clipper cruise in December, we indulged in daily beach hopping. My favorite beach by far was The Baths on Virgin Gorda, BVI. I opted to explore the easier trail and strolled down a winding path to a gorgeous, mostly deserted beach studded with huge boulders. The scenery was stunning. After taking photos along the water's edge, I sat at a shady table to write in my journal. During my peaceful morning, I enjoyed the sound of the sea, the warm sunshine and the blissfully serene setting. Up above the beach at the top of the trail, colorful shops and an inviting outdoor restaurant with a swimming pool await visitors who need a break from the sun.

Centrally located on Tortola's north side, this is probably the busiest beach since its beauty is often compared to Magen's Bay on St. Thomas.
Great spot in Tortola beautiful beach we spent two weeks in an Airbnb short walk to the beach. Many restaurants and bars to choose from. It got crowded on the beach when the cruse ships came in but they usually left by three and we had the beach to ourselves. The days there were no ships were beautiful.

This Tortola cove offers excellent snorkeling opportunities.
We drove here from cruise poer. 4wheel drive suggested. there was 2 cruise ships in port so about 80 people showed up this day on the beach, 2 primitive beach shacks for cold drinks and a few chairs.
