1. Cane Garden Bay
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,146 reviews
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.
3. Brewers Bay

An exceptional bay and beach area on Tortola's north shore, which is protected by boulder-strewn barrier reefs, making this stretch of water popular for swimming and snorkeling.

Easy to get to (by car), lots of beautiful white sandy beach, calm clear Caribbean water, pelicans soaring above you and diving around you, and very good snorkeling on the left side. And there’s a bar. And there’s easy parking.

5. Long Bay Beach
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 268 reviews
A perfect getaway for a day, this charming, half-mile strip of soft white sand is isolated and rarely visited since it is accessible only by a small dirt road.

Long Beach is fantastic. Warm water, soft white sand, no crowds and great for lunch is Denise’s, particularly jerk chicken with her hot sauce.

A lovely beach sweeping for half a mile, which provides a great place to swim, snorkel, sunbathe or just relax and watch the pelicans dive for fish.

7. Nanny Cay

Nanny Cay has the feel and all the amenities of a small tropical village, including shopping, dining and lodging options.

Great marina, showers, shops and laundry services. And the restaurant is very good. Nice menu options and the best Painkillers we had in the BVI. Staff very nice and helpful!
8. Anegada Island
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 629 reviews
Anegada or the "drowned island" is completely surrounded by shallow reefs, and has become the focal point of underwater diving due to the many historic shipwrecks that litter the island's underwater depths.

Anagada Island is charming! The views linger in my mind now that we are home. Cow Wreck Beach is a must, as is Ann’s gift shop and sweet Ann herself, living the work dream alongside her honey and parents. Meet her. Snorkeling was fun and Ann’s painkillers are the absolute best in the BVI.
9. Rhone National Marine Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 211 reviews
Park that encompasses the wreck of the HMS Rhone, a mail ship that sunk during a hurricane in 1867, and Dead Chest Island, both great dive sites.
Reviewed By gilstrap_robert - Rockville, United States
This was my first wreck dive and I am amazed. I would now prefer to dive wrecks versus reefs. All kinds of fish, a few sharks and an amazing story about the Rhone.
