What To Do on Tortola

White-sand beaches, green mountains, yacht-filled harbors, and a heady mix of island history. Tortola offers visitors a variety of possibilities.

If you’ve come to shop, don’t miss Main Street in Road Town. It’s lined with shops offering everything from local spices, jams, rums and soaps to handcrafted jewelry, silk-screened fabrics and local art.

Have lunch at one of the restaurants on the harbor. Dine on local delicacies like lobster, conch and curries while gazing at spectacular cruise ships and private yachts.

Get a sense of rich local history in centuries-old ruins like the Dungeon and Fort George and at the Virgin Island Folk Museum in Road Town. You can visit living history at Callwood’s Rum Distillery, which is still making rum!

There are National Parks of all kinds – from a primeval rain forest to a mountain ridge from which you can observe the local farms, settlements and churches to wild rock outcroppings and dry steam valleys. For a relatively small island, there is an incredible diversity to the topography. And the friendly and welcoming people of Tortola will help you discover it all.

There are plenty of restaurants and cuisines to choose from, no matter what you’re in the mood for. You can try authentic BVI cuisine, or some upscale Caribbean Fusion. They’re plenty of delicious local seafood restaurants, as well as international cuisines from all over the world. Be adventurous and try something new – you’re on vacation in the most beautiful place on earth!
