British Virgin Islands Travel Blogs

Virgin Gorda is famous for the seaside granite rock formation known as The Baths. I'd seen picture of The Baths and knew that a trip to see the huge boulders amid pools of water was one thing I definitely wanted to do on this cruise. Carnival Miracle docked at Tortola in the British…

We pulled into Spanish Town, Virgin Gorda, the first stop on our excursion today.  Since this was British soil, the first mate had collected our passports and customs forms in advance ( We had to list the boat "Breakaway" as our "address" while staying on the island!) and we had about a 10 min…

We flew from Orlando to Puerto Rico on a big plane - one of the ones that has two seats on each side, then an aisle, and then like 5 or 6 seats across the middle.  From the gate in Puerto Rico, after our layover, we took a little bus outside to the part of the airstrip wher…

We have all seen the oh so cheesy adverts on TV beckoning people to come to the carribean, the golden sands, the bluer than blue waters,the couple holding hands and a small child with an overly exagerated smile placed on his or her face.

Time was mostly with famliy... but I always enjoy the scenery

4 continents down, 3 to go!!! Just a few snapshots of where I've been over the past few years!

virgin gorda is a wonderfull place if you like to chill out, beaches that are beutifull &empty. amazing sea food, diving is the best ever. the snorkling is awesome, and the cocktails are strong. try this place if you ever get the chance, the best way to learn sailing too.

Tortola

Just a week R & R on the beach with a couple of friends and our kids.Very relaxing as the hotel was lovely.I don't think we ever left the grounds of the hotel.The most exhaustive thing was the daily hour long 5 a side football matches against the locals and other hotel guests.This is the life!!
