Step into Virgin Territory

This idyllic isle is home to protected nature sanctuaries, national parks, and miles of pristine, uncrowded beaches. Explore the rugged trails that course through Little Fort National Park, located on the site of a former Spanish fortress, or shop for artisan goods and souvenirs at Spanish Town, the second-largest village in all of BVI. With scenic grottoes that open out to the sea, the eight-and-a-half square miles of Virgin Gorda's remote beaches, spectacular granite formations, and vibrant coral reefs are sure to captivate visitors at every turn.

Forecasting Your Virgin Gorda Vacation
Seemingly endless sunshine warms Virgin Gorda's pristine beaches, where vibrant turquoise water laps at the white sand and palm leaves delicately rustle in the breeze. Such is a typical day on the island. The paradise-like conditions extend throughout the year, only interrupted by an occasional rainstorm. Near-constant trade winds make Virgin Gorda a haven for sailing and surfing, but they can lower temperatures during the evening. Be sure to bring a sweater or jacket.
