British Virgin Islands / Leeward Islands Vacation Packages For island-hopping beach-lovers, the British Virgin Islands are paradise. From Jost Van Dyke, which is quite simply the world's best beach-bar island, to Anegada -- hot, blonde and a total beach compared to her cool, green sister islands -- the BVI offers a bevy of secluded coves and idyllic anchorages along with intimate resorts that jibe with the territory's low-key, nature-friendly feel. The BVIs have some of the best beaches in the Caribbean. Be sure to visit Smuggler's Cove, which has plenty of good snorkeling, and Long Bay, with its white-sand beaches and remote location make it an ideal spot to spend a lazy day--both on Tortola. A visit to the BVIs would not be complete without a visit to The Baths, a spectacular array of boulders and grottos on Virgin Gorda. Deep Bay has calm waters, ideal for swimming. Savannah Bay is a private beach of white sand. For those looking for a more active day at the beach, try Leverick Bay, where there's a resort, pool, and restaurant; Prickly Pear Island adds a picturesque and unexpected viewing pleasure from the beach.

Apple Vacations Online Quotes & Availability Book online with the Pleasant Holidays Online Booking Engine Necker Island - Necker Island - Private island near Virgin Gorda offering 10 bedroom residence and three, 1 bedroom villas, 2 swimming pools, beach and tennis court. Includes description and photographs of accommodations, activities, history and rates. Guana Island, BVI
Hosting a maximum of 40 guests on its 850 acres, Guana Island is a privately owned Virgin, most of which is maintained as a wildlife haven. For snorkelers, it's an absolute sanctuary, surrounded by reefs and rocky coastline that attract an abundance of sea creatures. The best beach here, White Bay, is one of the best anywhere. Thick coral spurs begin just a few feet off the sugary shore, and the bay holds dense schools of silversides that support a thriving food chain that includes big tarpon. White Bay offers Guana's easiest, most accessible snorkeling, but even more stellar sites -- Crab Cove, Long Man's Point and Monkey Point -- await those who either hike the nature trails that stitch across the island or kayak from White Bay. Rooms, including all meals, start at $775 in low season ($1,150 high). |
