Beaches & Reefs: Striking coral reefs surround the island, including the Eastern Caribbean’s third largest continuous reef, Horseshoe Reef.  Secluded sandy beaches protected by the sheltering reef include:

• Cow Wreck Beach • Flash of Beauty
• Bones Bight
• Windlass Bight

Diver’s Delight:  Snorkellers and scuba divers will delight in the reef’s mazes, tunnels and drops, which are rich in needle fish, mojarra, stingrays, parrot fish and other marine life, while those with sea legs will enjoy water sports, sport fishing and bone fishing.  You can also explore the wreckages of numerous Spanish galleons, American privateers and British warships.

Clear springs that bubble from coral beds support a variety of wildlife special to the Virgin Islands area, including loblolly, frangipani, turpentine trees, feathery sea lavender and wild orchids. On the nature trail at Bones Bight, catch a glimpse of the rare rock iguanas native to BVI's Anegada, or discover the exotic birds at Nutmeg Point.
