The British Virgin Islands
are a paradise waiting to be discovered. Compared to the American Virgin Islands, their next- door cousins, the BVIs have a small native population and, typically, small resorts, inns and villas.

The cover photo (credit: Dan Burch), was taken from Mt. Sage with the view toward Tortola's northern beach coast.

Dining in the islands
is quite an event, partly for the fun of getting there and partly for the settings which favor seabreezes and verandas on seacoasts, in beach bars and even on mountaintops.

MBI-Dining2.jpg (2845 bytes)The menus vary from local West Indian cooking with giant Anegada lobster feasts to fine Continental French and Florentine cuisine. See Cuisine of the Islands about this fabulous food!
