Day 2:
Monday through Friday, March 12-16:
Each day will be a new adventure. Depending on the tides, currents, and the breeze, we will visit the "Treasure Islands" of Tortola, Cooper Island, Peter Island, Norman Island, and Virgin Gorda. Here's a brief synopsis of the things we will see on each island:
„h Norman Island: The Island that inspired Robert Louis Stevens classic ˇ§Treasure Island.ˇ¨ Snorkel into the caves at Treasure Point and keep your eyes peeled for loot rumored to be hidden by pirate Owen Lloyd from the Spanish ship ˇ§Nuestra Senora.ˇ¨ Some of the treasure was found in the caves in the early 1900ˇ¦s, so happy hunting!
„h Tortola: Largest of the British Virgins, Tortola is also the Capital and our homeport. You won't find duty-free shopping, huge resorts or casinos here. But who's complaining. From the moment you step foot on the Virgin Islands, you'll fall in love with the friendly people, the world's finest beaches and the most magnificent hilltop views. You'll enjoy charming boutiques, outdoor vendors, and a "can't miss," The Pusser's Co. Store and Pub.
„h Virgin Gorda: When you think Virgin Gorda, you think "The Baths" - the most extraordinary natural formation in the CaribbeanˇK.gigantic boulders form natural grottos, caves and crystal clear pools. Then check out one of the most popular yacht clubs in the Caribbean - The Bitter End.
„h Copper Island: One of the most frequented anchorages in the British Virgin Islands. On the northwest coast is Manchioneel Bay, named after the tree that grows a poisonous apple, so donˇ¦t eat the fruit! Then thereˇ¦s the Cooper Island Beach Club. Stop in after youˇ¦ve exhausted yourself and that poor windsurfer or sea kayak you rented.
„h Peter Island: A popular yacht anchorage. Peter Island boasts beautiful beaches and perfect picnic spots like Deadmanˇ¦s Bay, Great Harbour and Sprat Bay.
