You will love it!! sage mountain hike is a nice excursion. Cane Garden Bay. Often overlooked but trellis bay by the airport is also a nice stoll. Aragorn's studio has many lovely handmade items. Sunday brunch at Tamarind club is also a great way to spend a day.
Toast.......to Life; White Bay...heaven on earth. Diane

letsgosailing said: Be sure to get a ferry from Sopers Hole to Jost VD. Make your way to White Bay. Worth the effort. A day trip to Anegada wouldn't be too bad either <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />

I love Tortola, and would gladly spend a land-based vacation there. But to truly understand why we all keep coming back over and over again (14 times for me), you will want to experience the other islands -- JVD, Norman, Virgin Gorda, Cooper, the Baths, the Caves, the Indians, Marina Cay (read "Two on the Isle" by Robb White if you can before you go). Spend a day with a knowledgeable taxi driver (get a quote first) and see it from a local perspective. Have fun and report back!
