    BVI Sailing Adventures: The Baths Virgin Gorda, Beef Island Full Moon Party & Friends Visit in the British Virgin Islands

    Exploring The Baths Virgin Gorda: massive granite boulders, hidden grottoes and turquoise pools in the British Virgin Islands

    BVI Sailing Adventures: The Baths Virgin Gorda, Beef Island Full Moon Party & Friends Visit in the British Virgin Islands Darlings, pour yourself a proper cuppa (or a rum punch, no judgement here), because our latest chapter in the British Virgin Islands was a glorious, chaotic whirlwind of friends, near disasters, moonlit madness, and enough turquoise water to make your Instagram feed weep with envy. We’d barely caught our breath from Anegada when it was time to haul up the anchor and sail back toward Tortola to collect our UK pals. Simple plan: seven blissful nights of island-hopping with them.…

    Darlings, gather round with your rum punch (or tea, if you’re feeling particularly civilised), because our St Maarten sailing escapade was equal parts magical and mildly terrifying, like auditioning for a dragon-riding role but with actual currents and a very…

    So, six had become four.Our floating circus had downsized — but fear not, darling, the fun most certainly hadn’t. It was a Sunday in Antigua, and we’d heard whispers (more like enthusiastic shouts, actually) about a place called Shirley Heights Lookout. A…
