Posted on by blogger

What is a Caribbean Vacation with out a few cocktails and some adventure? While cruising on a BVI Yacht Charter offers some of the finest luxuries any vacation can offer, it never hurts to go ashore for some mingling with locals and a few cocktails. Here is a list of some of some of the best beach bars in the British Virgin Islands. Land HO!!!

ANEGADA
If you’re swimming at Loblolly Bay, base yourself close to The Big Bamboo. Great lunches and a large outdoor bar just steps from the beach. Anegada Reef Hotel, Restaurant and Bar is the closest bar to the dock. This friendly establishment is popular, has a casual atmosphere, and has the freshest lobster that is to die for! Neptune’s Treasure is a serene restaurant and bar further down the beach. On weekends the bar becomes lively with music and an influx of Tortola residents looking for a weekend escape.

BEEF ISLAND
Trellis Bay
The Last Resort has been synonymous with live entertainment since the beginning of yacht chartering. Enjoy great food and live entertainment. On the south shore of the bay, there is quite an assortment of local shops, artist studios, bars and restaurants. The monthly Trellis Bay Full Moon party is anticipated all year long. Two large fireballs are lit while locals dance the night away.

COOPER ISLAND
Cooper Island Beach Club is a popular restaurant and bar are on beautiful Manchioneel Beach. The island is an ideal anchorage spot to stop and have a drink while you watch the sun set over The Drake Channel.

JOST VAN DYKE
White Bay The Soggy Dollar Bar is famous for its Painkillers, which were actually first invented here. The original recipe is a secret family recipe. Great Harbor Foxys Tamarind Bar has certainly changed from the early 70s. Charter vacationers used to listen to true calypso while eating lobster with all of the locals at one long table. It has grown enormously. All kinds of talented local bands and musicians play here. The music and dancing can go on late into the night. Besides the bar and restaurant, there is also a large gift shop with a wide variety of local items, including CDs and the obligatory Foxys T-shirt. Be sure to bring something personal you can tack to the ceiling, anything from Business cards to hats and even underwear is acceptable. This place is for those who are easily offended , but most people at least stop in and have a drink.

Little Jost Van Dyke Foxy’s Taboo restaurant and bar is the new ‘in’ place. You are more likely to meet Foxy here than at his original bar. Moorings are available, but this can be a rough spot in unsettled weather.

MARINA CAY
Now owned by Pussers, this famous island resort has a bar at the very top of the island, offering great sunset views and live music some nights.

NORMAN ISLAND
The infamous Willie T is an all out party destination with plenty of drinking and wild antics. Expect the unexpected. Not recommended for children or the faint hearted! Pirates Bight offers a more relaxed way to watch the sunset, but also has music, dancing and a very popular Happy Hour with every exotic frozen drink you can imagine.

TORTOLA
At Cane Garden Bay, Quito Rhymer is an extremely popular local musician who can be found performing at his bar/restaurant, Quitos Gazebo. Further down the beach, Al Henleys Big Banana Paradise Club, Rhymers Beach Bar, Stanleys Welcome Bar and Myetts Garden and Grill all offer meals, drinks and live music on selected nights that can be heard from your anchorage spot out onto the water. The Pub, below the Fort Burt Hotel, was the original bar in Road Town in The 60s and 70s and is a lively hot spot today. There are bars at Village Cay Marina, Mariner Inn, Pussers waterfront and many other locations in town, but these can hardly be considered beach bars, although many people visit them when embarking and disembarking from their Caribbean Yacht Charter.

VIRGIN GORDA
Spanish Town
The Bath and Turtle Pub often has live music and dancing.

The Baths
Poor Man’s Bar is the ultimate watering hole to relax after snorkeling.

North Sound
Leverick Bay has a beach barbecue every Friday, with live music and entertainment. The Sand Box is a casual bar and restaurant offering lunch and dinner. The Bitter End is a large resort with shops, water sport facilities, restaurant and an English pub, but they often also have live music and entertainment. Saba Rock is an excellent restaurant and bar located on a tiny island. Enjoy the popular 2-4-1 Happy Hour, while watching a fabulous sunset over The Sound.

West End/Sopers Hole
Pussers Landing & Company Store has two restaurants and a variety of shops, but it also has a popular bar. Here’s a hint, when you order your first ‘Pussers Pain Killer’, ask for a card. After visiting three different Pussers bars (and having a painkiller at each) you will get a Pussers Triangle Pennant you can fly from your boat – or hang at home!

While most vacationers like to enjoy the comforts of their luxury yacht charter, a true Caribbean Yacht Charter isnt complete until you stop for a cocktail at a few of the best spots in the British Virgin Islands. You never know what you’ll see or who you willl meet, but you’ll be sure to have some tales to tell at your own watering hole back homefor years to come.
