Jamie O’Shaughnessy visited the BVI in March and shot the most amazingly beautiful video of the BVI. This is a must watch for anyone considering a vacation this season or anyone who knows and loves the BVI. Jamie said in an email to BVI Traveller, “Thanks again for www.bvitraveller.com, your info helped us have an enjoyable trip. The BVIs are coming on strong and it’s great to see. We made a video to do a little bit to promote the islands.” Hats off to Jamie for some incredible work on this.

BVI Traveller was created in September of 2017 to help tourism in the British Virgin Islands recover from the devastation wrought by Hurricane Irma.
To that end, we met our goals. In the past 7 years there have been over 1.2 million visits to the website and over 3 million pages have been viewed. There are over 1,000 pages on the site featuring news posts and detailed listings on all hotels, villas, restaurants and sailing charters located in the BVI. The BVI Government and many business, hotels, villas and sailing charters have all agreed that the site “moved the needle on tourism” after Irma.
The site, however, has run its course. It has served its purpose by bringing visitors and local businesses together to rebuild the tourist industry and it is now time to shut down operations for good.
I want to thank everyone for your help and support.
