The volcanic islands that make up the Virgin
Islands are one of the most popular destinations for yacht
charters worldwide, as they offer superb snorkelling and diving,
great sailing, and a variety of islands to explore. In contrast
to the bustling U.S. Virgin Islands, are the low-key British
Virgin Islands. Breathe deep as the rich island aromas drift
to you on the tradewinds, stirring images of a time centuries
past when pirates battled for the spoils of a conquered galleon,
now sip lightly at the evening's libation of rum and tropical
juice to find yourself anchored out in one of the many turquoise
bays of the Virgin Islands. Perhaps tomorrow's dive will reveal
some vestige of the past among the vibrant coral reefs that
surround these Caribbean jewels.
