Bound for Virgin Gorda, BVIs we left Bequia setting our sails to head NNW, switching out after a 2 hour shift. We had a good sail all the way spotting some dolphins and a few cruise ships along the way. Pretty quite and relaxing with good winds & no seasickness! We all had a good time on the passage.

Its dark out there at night but so peaceful and you get into a nice rhythm after a few days.

Just short of 3 days we spotted land and headed through the reef, past Saba Rock and the Bitter End Yacht club to clear in at Gun Creek, BVI’s.  It was great arriving mid day into North Sound, Virgin Gorda with all the yachts and super yachts in the bay around Bitter End Yacht club.

There was a Regatta on while we were there so things were busy in the bay.

We anchored in Leverick Bay and in front of us was S/V Chinook Arch from Edmonton, Alberta relatives of friends of ours. We were all eager to hit land and have a few libations while watching the local pirate show, Michael Bean. 

The recipe for the famous Painkiller. A tasty treat thats goes down way to easily.

The next day we hired a car and toured Virgin Gorda; snorkeling at The Baths, wandering some of the many beautiful white sandy beaches and stopping at many scenic stops along the way.

The walk into the baths is very dry and hot that you are so amazed when you arrive down at the that crystal clear water with the giant boulders.

We stopped at Hog Heaven, which overlooked Leverick Bay & Seismic Wave through to Necker Island (Richard Bransons private Island) and the Bitter End. It was so picturesque at the overlook.

By driving around Virgin Gorda we noticed a beautiful white sandy beach, Sevannah Bay with crystal clear waters, which was protected by a reef so headed there for some seclusion. It was beautiful.
