Natural lush beauty, a tropical climate tempered by gentle trade winds, and tranquil turquoise waters all add up to the perfect setting for sailing, diving, deep sea fishing and more. Welcome to the British Virgin Islands and Virgin Gorda! Virgin Gorda is the third-largest island in the region, boasting one of the great harbours of the world – North Sound. Being surrounded by four other islands and connecting reef systems keeps the Sound’s waters calm, creating an unequalled area for water sports such as snorkelling, diving and fishing.
