Tortola Beaches... Best in the World!
Tortola Beaches are incredible! That was my first
impression when I first visited this British Virgin Island during a surf trip over 20 years ago.
I remember thinking that these were not the same as most beaches I'd
ever seen or visited. Well, 20 years later I still feel the same way. Only I've been
to a lot more beaches in the last 20 years so I can make a better comparison.
My passion for the ocean and surfing has kept me in search
of great tropical beaches around the world. My traveling has taken me to some great
beach locations. Some of my destinations have been in Hawaii, Central America,
Mexico, throughout the Caribbean and both coast of Australia. I've also
experienced beaches of California and the East Coast.
Fortunately for me,
I discovered Tortola and don't have to travel around
the globe to visit my favorite island and best beaches!
Tortola has it all covered in the realm of beaches.
All
shapes and sizes with different personalities and feel. Some are quiet and
peaceful, others have playful waves to keep everyone in the family happy. Each
Tortola beach is unique with something special to offer. Get ready to learn
why two 'professional' beachcombers choose Tortola beaches year after year!
If you're searching for a fantastic tropical getaway,
you'll find what you want throughout this site! You're invited on a personal
tour with my girlfriend and I, so you can experience this island jewel with us

We've got some really great news too! As of July 2008 you
are now able to book a yacht charter directly from Tortola-Beaches.com and save
yourselves a lot of time and energy trying to set up your dream charter! We
