An island adored by Yachties
either direction out of Road Town the roads narrow , the shoulder becomes thread thin and the curves become blind . The taxi fares are steep but not unfair and the drivers are always friendly and happy to stop along your way for whatever you might need .
Tortola is volcanic and at its top is Mount Sage National Park , the highest peak in the entire Virgin Island chain at 1,716 feet . Settlements dot both coastlines on either side with Road Town to the south facing the islands of Peter , Cooper and Salt . At only 21.5 square miles , anywhere on the island is fairly accessible . A trip over the mountains might end in the quintessential Caribbean beach of Cane Garden Bay . A shimmering anchorage is tucked in against a friendly village that lines the shore . Here is everything you might need for a vacation . Good restaurants , live music , banking , shopping , laundry , groceries , bars , hotels and guesthouses and rental villas .
