The 10 Best Things to do Good for Kids in Virgin Gorda, British Virgin Islands

January 13, 2022 Jeremy Dunfee

Life is just a little bit slower on Virgin Gorda, so named because this British Virgin Island resembles a large reclining woman. The laid-back pace of the island is the perfect excuse to take your time, whether you’re wading along the granite grottoes of The Baths, doing some casual snorkeling in Devil’s Bay, or exploring the stone ruins of a 19th century Copper Mine. Hanging out in the hammock at Mad Dog while you sip a Painkiller is the ultimate in Virgin Gorda relaxation.

Devil's Bay National Park

A bay in Virgin Gorda amid enormous granite rocks with warm, shallow water.

I looooved swimming in the sea at this beach. The sand was so soft. Recommend wearing sport sandals or water shoes as there are several rocks getting into the water, as well as large rocks in the water.

Spring Bay

This magnificent Virgin Gorda beach, which is adjacent to The Baths, is a great place for snorkeling.

Reviewed By wheresgigi - New Haven, United States

Spring Bay is steps over from the Baths, and is like a little mini Baths. The Baths can get pretty crowded, so if you're looking for the experience of the sheltered coves among the big boulders without the crowds, stop here. There's a picnic table and palm trees...and the whole beach to yourself.

Savannah Bay

Virgin Gorda's loveliest beach is a long strand of powdery white coastline lapped by placid waters.

Reviewed By Eddie1219 - Marlow, United Kingdom

Spanish Town, British Virgin Islands – Savannah Beach While our cruise ship docked at Spanish Town we decided to take a taxi to Savannah Beach, which was a short drive away. Taxis charge $5 per person for the trip – you will need to rebook the taxi for the return. Savannah Beach has no facilities save a couple of wooden shelters with integral bench seating so if you want a bar or café, this destination is not for you. We found the almost deserted beach to be the perfect place for a short excursion. The bay is unspoilt, for the greater part surrounded by wooded hills. In the sea there was a sand bar 40 metres out making swimming very safe, even in the lively swell we encountered that morning. A fabulous few hours ashore.

Speedy's

Speedy's is the number one ferry company in the BVI's and provides reliable transportation service to the British Virgin Islands. The optimum in inter island ferry service also offers convenient choices in car rentals, taxis and safari tours for transportation around serene and tranquil Virgin Gorda. Speedy's friendly and efficient service coupled with our top of the line ferries and vehicles are just some of the reasons you should make us your company of choice for your island adventure or day to day commute. Edwin (a.K.A. Speedy) and Nidia George started business in the early 1960's with only one taxi cab. Then, from their front yard, they started Virgin Gorda's first driving school. In the late 60's, they imported three mini mokes for rental, and in 1974 the first safari bus was taking visitors on Island Tours. Speedy's first ferry, 'Adventure', did a variety of ferry runs. It offered a weekly shopping trip to St. Thomas, acted as a 'Water Ambulance', and performed Coast Guard rescues. Since then Speedy's has grown steadily and now offers a wide range of car/Jeep rentals and operate a busy fleet of Safari Buses. Newer bigger ferries have joined the fleet ensuring a comfortable and reliable inter island scheduled service. Still very much a family business, Speedy's continue to give the same friendly and efficient service as always.
