The location

About an hour flight from Antigua lie the British Virgin Islands, the language is English and the currency is the US dollar. The national dish is fried chicken and ribs.

It is not hard to see why they call the Virgin Islands Nature’s little secret, it is the yachtsman’s paradise with crystal clear waters, white sandy beaches and the occasional palm tree and hammock thrown in for good measure. It’s no surprise that Sir Richard Branson has bought an island here and built his own holiday complex.

The BVI’s are made up of 60+ islands, most of which are very close to the main island of Tortola and within a short boat trip you can visit many bars and restaurants like the William Thornton (Willy T) which is a pirate boat moored in a bay on Norman Island famous for wild parties, but also doubles as a pleasant lunchtime stop during the day.

The best part of living in the British Virgin Islands is the weather and with your spare time you can enjoy many of the wide variety of water sports on offer including yacht cruising, yacht racing, kite surfing, diving on the many wrecks that can be found in the area and windsurfing.
