The British Virgin Islands (BVI) is the ideal destination for a romantic retreat. This stunning sixty-island archipelago provides a plethora of activities for those seeking adventure or spaces for those searching for a quiet retreat for rejuvenation and revival.
The islands are little green gems, with sizes ranging from Tortola at 21 square miles to Sandy Cay which is less than half an acre. Sixteen of these islands are inhabited, and most of the islands’ over 30,000 residents live on Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Anegada and Jost Van Dyke.
As the custodians of some of the BVI’s most celebrated natural treasures, The BVI National Parks Trust manages twenty-one national parks, protecting unique areas in the territory comprising natural habitats for plants and animals, thus preserving the islands’ wildlife.
The continued preservation of these habitats ensures that their unique existing life forms continue to thrive and are preserved for present and future generations to enjoy. The unique features of these islands continue to attract visitors who come to enjoy their natural beauty.
