Great book for traveling to the BVI - if you are sailing i would recommend a BVI sailing book instead!
Invaluable!

This is a super guide for anyone visiting the BVI, either on a sailboat or not. It is about as accurate as it can be, considering signs fade and fall down. We have been there 6 times and always used the previous edition, and this new one is even better. If you are going there--buy this book.
A must-have for a trip to the BVI
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
We took this book with us on our recent trip to Virgin Gorda in the BVI, and we were amazed at how accurate the information was. We went to many places on Virgin Gorda recommended in Acheson's book and were thrilled that her reviews were so on-target. Would highly recommend this book to anyone planning a trip to the British Virgin Islands, and especially to Virgin Gorda.
The Best of the BVI
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Pamela Acheson gives many, many helpful comments on each island in the BVI. She describes all of the beaches, many restaurants and bars, and offers many helpful hints. We relied heavily on her book for our recent visit to Tortola and were not disappointed. She is right on with all of her comments, such as Jost Van Dyke is a really great day trip, how to greet and deal with the locals, Tortola's amazing roads, her suggested adventure to Smuggler's Cove (with complete directions and what to expect), and her evaluation of many restaurants including Brandywine Bay, Sugar Mill, Roti Palace, an unnamed local fish fry, and especially a lovely Italian cafe named Capriccio di Mare (all very good). Her suggestions such as to take at least one nautical adventure, take in the view from Sky World, watch out for a particular mule, etc., were all helpful and accurate. Ferry schedules, banking, the best water taxis, etc. were all very useful. As is written on the book jacket, we found it to be an indispensable, friendly, fun-to-use guide for anyone visiting the BVI.
