Cycling

Cycling on Tortola has become increasingly popular of late, however it is not for the faint hearted. If you’re up for a challenge and you like living on the edge, cycle away. From the treacherous vertical hills, steep hairpin turns, mountainous terrains to dusty roads you definitely need some stamina on these rides. You can rent bicycles on the island to suit the local conditions

Helicopter Tours

What better way to explore the beauty of the British Virgin Islands in 30 minutes than a exhilarating helicopter ride. Enjoy breathtaking views of the dramatic landscape from the mountainous terrains, lagoons with coral reefs, beautiful white sandy beaches and turquoise blue waters. Who wouldn’t want to experience an angel’s view of paradise!

Anegada Land & Sea Tours

Visit one of Anegada’s best kept secrets. Get up close and personal with the flamingoes living here in the salt ponds. They are a majestic sight to see especially if you see them close up or as they take flight. Next on the tour is a trip to Conch Island, a man made island from a collection of empty conch shells tossed on top of one another for hundreds of years by the local fishermen. Finish off the tour with a snorkel and a lobster hunt for your dinner in the evening!

Necker Island Wildlife Tour

Gumptions Learning Adventures will take you on a Nature Tour located on Sir Richard Branson’s private island, Necker.

Spaces are limited on these tours so book in advance to avoid disappointment.

Hiking

Hiking

There is a lot more to the BVI than sea, sand and sailing. Exploring the islands by foot is a great way to really get to know the lay of the land. There are 7 islands with fantastic hikes. From easy trails to the slightly more challenging, located off the beaten track. Climb your way to the top of several of the islands to see some spectacular views of the BVI or ramble through the flora and fauna of the National Parks. There are a few companies who offer guided walks or you can purchase the BVI hiking guide to steer you in the right direction.

Horse Riding
