Cane Garden Bay and Brewers Bay to Get $1.7 Million Makeover!

According to a recent article in the BVI Beacon two key tourist beaches on the north shore will be getting a much needed makeover. The article reported, “New palm trees, a graveyard wall, and a repaired dinghy dock are just some of the $1.7 million worth of improvements the government will be pouring into Cane Garden and Brewers bays over the next month in hopes of luring back the tourists they lost after the hurricanes. Second District Representative Mitch Turnbull, speaking alongside other leaders last Thursday at a community meeting at Rhymer’s Beach Hotel, called the repair of Tortola’s major tourist hub “absolutely essential.”Officials, he said, plan on “getting our communities back to a place where not only can we set that standard of excellence for our guests, [but for] those of us who live here.” He added that the works should be completed quickly, so that representatives from cruise lines who visit the territory soon will see the progress.”
