A DAY IN THE LIFE OF PARADISE
Where the Caribbean meets the Atlantic there's a chain of sixty islands called the British Virgin Islands. With hundreds of secret bays and hidden coves, they've been a haven for seafarers for centuries. The British Virgin Islands hold many attractions. Deserted white sand beaches where you can soak up the sun or lie in the shade all day. The green, cedar-covered hills. Shady mountain trails to be hiked. Sophisticated shops. Friendly people to welcome you.
Virgin Gorda
Measuring just eight-and-a-half-miles long, Virgin Gorda is the third largest in the island chain. Dramatic slopes plunge from Gorda Peak to the turquoise waters far below. Columbus named it Virgin Gorda, "The Fat Virgin". By mid-morning in Virgin Gorda, the sun-worshippers have settled down on one of the many deserted beaches that fringe the island. The unique rock formations at The Baths call out to the nature lover. The pace of life is slow here. The choice of restaurants will please the most discriminating palate.
