Diving
& Snorkeling
British Virgin Islands
Mauricio
Handler
Comprising
some 40 islands and cays in the northeast corner of the Caribbean, the British
Virgin Islands are low-key and uncommercial. Topside, they offer lush
subtropical forests and endless pristine beaches. Underwater, divers and
snorkelers delight in coral-covered pinnacles, caverns, walls and shipwrecks,
including the famed 19th-century RMS Rhone. Once a notorious pirate hideaway,
today's British Virgin Islands continue to be a sailors' paradise and are
counted among the Caribbean's premier yachting destinations. This book describes
63 of the British Virgin Islands' best dive sites, with full-color photos
throughout.
