BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS

This was our 3rd time in the BVIs, our first with Alpenglow.  As much as we like the BVIs, it'll be our last.  We didn't always visit the same Islands.  This time we went to Soper's Hole, Norman Island, Trellis Bay, Spanish Town in Virgin Gorda, Gorda Sound, Anegada & Leverick Bay.

We were very happy to have fun in the BVIs with my long time friend Natalie and her husband Max from Montreal.

PIRATE PARTY AT LEVERICK BAY




WE'VE BEEN FRIENDS FOR OVER 25 YEARS

Information for Cruisers: 
1)  Do not miss snorkeling 'THE INDIANS'.  Arrive very early (before 6am) to get a mooring ball.  The sunrise is spectacular.
2) When you get to THE CAVES, don't just stay on the beach.  Hike thru the boulders, it's lots of fun and beautiful.  There's another beach at the end.
3) Tourist guides tell you about the flamingoes in Anegada.  If you do see them, they will be very far away, hardly worth it.
4) Leverick Bay:  If you pick up a mooring ball, you get free water, however, you can anchor.  The water isn't that expensive. 
5) You can use the pool, showers and laundry facilities at Leverick Bay.  We were anchored and nobody ever bothered us about using their facilities.  There's also a nice small grocery shop behind the laundry (get tokens at the office).
