Did You Know?
First settled by the Dutch in 1648, the islands were
soon after (1672) annexed by the English. The economy
is closely tied to the larger and more populous US Virgin
Islands to the west; the US dollar is the legal currency.

British Virgin Islands
The British Virgin Islands are an archipelago of more than 60 islands
and cays, each unique in character, many of them unspoiled and untouched.
With pristine beaches garlanded with coral reefs, sheltered bays
and coves, spectacular arrays of boulders, crystal pools, lush green
valleys and rolling hills, sweeping down to sandy beaches.
The two islands with the most name recognition are Tortola, known
for its gorgeous mountain scenery and boating, and Virgin Gorda,
known for the Rockefellers's exclusive Little Dix Bay resort and
for the "Baths" (huge granite boulders, caverns, grottoes,
and pools). Of course, other peers are noteworthy, too. There's
Anegada , a nearly deserted isle with a marvelous bird sanctuary
and Pearl white, powdery beaches wrapped all around the Island.
Jost Van Dyke which is known world wide for FOXY'S BAR ON THE BEACH
and their New Year Parties. Then there is Norman Island: said to
be the model for Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. And there's
a wealth of smaller islands, completely unspoiled, with names like
Scrub Island, Prickly Pear Island, Mosquito Island, Great Dog and
Dead Man's Chest.
