Nature's Little Secrets
Exploring the British Virgin Islands aboard the Moorings 514PC.
The 40-plus islands that form the British Virgin Islands (BVI) are lovingly referred to as “nature’s little secrets.” These dazzling islands, rocks and cays, settled in the crystal clear Caribbean water, offer the perfect cruising ground for experienced and amateur boaters alike. The islands beg to be explored, and the warm, calm waters — protected by the “bath-like” formation of the islands — boast some of the greatest snorkeling in the world.
