Virgin Gorda Tours

The dramatically shaped island of Virgin Gorda in British Virgin Islands reminded Christopher Columbus of a reclining woman, so he named it Virgin Gorda, the "Fat Virgin." The third largest island of the BVI, Virgin Gorda measures eight and a half square miles. In addition to the sheer beauty of the island, travelers are drawn to Virgin Gorda for its yacht clubs, quiet coves, safe anchorages and luxury resorts. On the North Sound, the Bitter End Yacht Club, accessible only by water, offers relaxation in an extraordinary, secluded environment. And with its spectacular setting, Little Dix Bay Resort, designed by Laurance S. Rockefeller, has its own spectacular setting. Virgin Gorda itself is a wonderful island that is unspoilt and home to the legendary 'Baths', while only a stone's throw away are many other islands to explore.
