Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbour posted the following update. They said, “We are proud to have been serving the people of the Caribbean for over 50 years, and look forward to the big changes we have coming to improve the VGYH experience. We have two large boatyards, the North Yard utilizing a brand new Cimolai Hoist capable of lifting a maximum of 350 Metric Tonnes, 180’ L.O.A. and 39’ Beam giving us the largest hauling capacity in the Leeward Islands. In the South Boatyard, we operate a Marine Travelift with a hauling capacity of 70 Tons, 80’ L.O.A. and 21’ Beam, and we also offer our reliable Hurricane Keel Pit Storage for monohulls. Our marina has 93 slips, all with 50 Amp and/or 100 Amp power, as well as a full-service fuel dock providing diesel, gasoline, water, and ice.”
In addition to the recently reopened Town Centre with a bank and other businesses, VGYH announced that soon to be reopened is the popular Shopping Centre and a new Restaurant!

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.
