Sadly since moving to Utah we have not been able to make our yearly trips to Leverick Bay. We are changing that with our trip in February. I just read a post about Biras Creek closing, pretty surprised . What other changes have happen that might be of interest to us ? New restaurants ? The old standards still open?

Little Dix Bay is also closed. Hog Heaven, overlooking North Sound, and Coco Maya, in Spanish Town, are the main new ones.

Hog Heaven is a BBQ place with a big deck and incredible views.

Little Dix is only temporarily closed for re-modelling. The estimated time was 18 months, though, so they will be down for a while more. A mall with a theater is being built in the empty lot across the street from Roadtown Wholesale (RTW) on the way to the Baths. Devil's Bay, the Bath's and Spring Bay have all been "roped" off to keep dinghy's off the beaches. You now have to tie up to dinghy mooring lines and swim/snorkel in from a charter boat. Many folks are now going to Spanish Town or Leverick and taking a cab or renting a vehicle to go to the Bath's. Hog Heaven is great. We haven't tried Cocomayo yet. If I think of more I'll reply again.

Coco Maya is fantastic - plan to spend more than one night there - and don't forget to go to Rendezvouz Bar at the yacht harbour parking lot.
