Itinerary
Snorkeling or swimming at The Caves on Norman Island is a must-do BVI experience! This legendary site—rumored to have inspired Treasure Island and once a pirate treasure hideout—offers dramatic sea caves teeming with vibrant marine life: orange cup corals, red sponges, colorful tropical fish, and frequent sea turtle sightings. Swim through narrow openings into stunning grottoes, with crystal-clear waters illuminating the underwater spectacle. Access is from the water only (no beach entry), so participants need to be comfortable swimming. We provide noodle floats or PFDs to support less confident swimmers. During peak crowds or rough weather, the caves may be temporarily inaccessible due to swells or congestion—in which case we’ll visit a nearby alternative snorkel spot with equally impressive marine life. *If moorings directly adjacent to the Caves are occupied we will transport you to the swim area in our auxiliary small dinghy which also has a swim ladder.
After snorkeling and lunch, our second stop is at the legendary Willy T Floating Bar on Norman Island. While it’s completely optional, guests who wish to will hop aboard our auxiliary dinghy for a short ride over to this iconic floating bar. Those who prefer to stay aboard the Anne Bonny can relax, swim, or simply enjoy the beautiful surroundings. For those joining us, you can grab one of the Willy T’s famous spicy margaritas, soak up the lively vibes, and experience the unique charm of this legendary floating ship.

About Tortola
Tortola, the largest of the British Virgin Islands, is a hilly Caribbean island of white-sand coves, anchorages and sailing harbours.
Tortola is about 20 km long, steep and green, with a spine of hills running its length and bays on both the north and south coasts. Road Town, the capital, sits on a deep harbour on the south side, where yachts fill the marinas, and the island has long been a base for sailing among the surrounding cays and channels. Sage Mountain National Park protects the highest peak and a patch of remnant rainforest.
