Tortola attractions -not only sun & beach
Main Street, Road Town: Overshadowed by the wider and busier Waterfront Drive, one-way Main Street offers fun shopping in tiny shops that crowd the narrow street. Step out of shops carefully as the sidewalks are frequently mere curbs and a passing car takes up a lot of the available space! The Post Office and its Philatelic Bureau are here on Main Street. Joseph Reynold O'Neal Botanic Gardens: A perfect place to get acquainted with the local flora and fauna is The Joseph Reynold O'Neal Botanic Gardens. Here you will find a good representation of tropical and subtropical plants, such as bread fruit, passion fruit, mangos, ferns, succulents, orchids and palm trees. The gardens are open daily. The Sage Mountain National Park: it is one of Tortola's natural treasures. Mount Sage, at 1,780 feet, is the highest point in the British Virgin Islands. The park's hiking paths afford panoramic views of neighboring Peter, Salt, Cooper and Ginger islands to the south and Jost Van Dyke and Sandy Cay to the north. Fort Recovery: Located in Tortola's West End, the fort's stone tower is believed to have been built by the island's first Dutch settlers, who landed at Soper's Hole in 1648. The Callwood Rum Distillery: Located at Cane Garden Bay, you can observe rum being made. In the late 18th century rum production and sugar cane were the BVI’s primary industries. The abolishment of slavery and a severe hurricane in the early 19th century lead to the end of the plantation era. Some of the original buildings are still standing and in use, although the roof has been replaced from time to time due to damage from hurricanes. Rum is still being made and sold in the boiling room, where the distillery’s original boiler still operates, and the rum is stored in some of the original storage casks. The old guard house is also still intact although it has been turned into an art gallery and gift shop. The V.I. Folk Museum: Located on Main Street in Road Town, the museum is housed in a traditional West Indian building, and has many artifacts on display from the islands' Tiano, plantation, and slavery eras. The Queen Elizabeth II Bridge: It connects Tortola with Beef Island, the location of the British Virgin Islands' main airport. |
