The 10 Best Things to do Adventurous in Road Town, Tortola

October 11, 2021 Madelene Haan

The former haunt of pirates, the Dutch and the English and Tortola's main town, Road Town is within reach of secluded beaches and hidden coves. The island displays the same leisurely pace as other British Virgin Islands, with festivals and regattas across the calendar. Helicopter and sea charters and diving are popular activities. On land, the ruins of Fort Burt and the still functioning Callwood Rum Distillery provide fun daytrips. Catch a cab between sights or rent a car to get out of town.

Blue Water Divers

On the 6th of September the BVI's were hit by hurricane Irma, a huge storm that decimated the islands. Blue Water Divers suffered a huge amount of damage, we completely lost our storm at West End. At Nanny Cay we lost part of the roof on the dive centre, our tank room collapsed, and our store room blew away. Out of our 4 dive boats, two sunk, but we are delighted to say that as of this week, 18th December we are fully operational at Nanny Cay, and we are out diving. We look forward to taking you diving again, so please come and see us soon.

Rhone National Marine Park

Park that encompasses the wreck of the HMS Rhone, a mail ship that sunk during a hurricane in 1867, and Dead Chest Island, both great dive sites.

Reviewed By gilstrap_robert - Rockville, United States

This was my first wreck dive and I am amazed. I would now prefer to dive wrecks versus reefs. All kinds of fish, a few sharks and an amazing story about the Rhone.
