| Known for their sheltered, clear blue sailing waters and the stunning beauty of her mountains, the British Virgin Islands are 60 miles east of Puerto Rico. Although there are 50 islands, rocks and cays dotting our sparkling blue sea, many of them are uninhabited. Chiefly volcanic in origin, with the exception of Anegada, which is a coral and limestone atoll. |

The Baths
|
Virgin Gorda
The northern half is mountainous with a peak of 1,370 feet, while the southern half is flat and scattered with giant boulders. The B.V.I.'s most famous natural attraction, The Baths - giant boulders forming a series of spectacular pools and grottoes - is located here. Virgin Gorda's 20 or so beaches include the beautiful Devil's Bay (a National Park), Spring Bay and Trunk Bay. There is also an abandoned Copper Mine on the southeast tip of the island where 19th century stone buildings can still be observed.
