Explore Romantic Peter Island, British Virgin Islands, By Boat!
Written by Leigh Woeller
When you take a Virgin Islands day boat charter with Pirate's Paradise Adventures, you'll not only be on the hottest boats on the water, you'll be in a Caribbean paradise! Once on board your private luxury powerboat, the toughest decision you'll make is which islands, beaches, snorkeling sites, beach bars and restaurants to visit. If romance is on the agenda, we'd recommend a stop at beautiful Peter Island. Reachable only by boat or chopper, you're guaranteed a romantic, memorable visit to this secluded island, inhabited only by a luxurious 5 star resort called Peter Island Resort & Spa. The fifth largest of the 60 islands that comprise the Virgin Islands, Peter Island offers gorgeous beaches, turquoise clear waters and a one of a kind adventure.
Most bays found on Peter Island, like Deadman's Bay, are protected, so expect calm waters in most of the bays you visit. With a one mile shoreline, Deadman’s Bay is huge. Several different beaches are situated on the bay’s long stretch of soft white sand along with lunch bars and grills, so throw the anchor and lounge at any one of them, enjoying stunning views and delicious Caribbean dishes.
Little Deadman's Beach is a mooring site for boats, so if you're looking for dramatic scenery for the photos you take; this is a good place for it. Another famous beach, Honeymoon Beach, is found almost at the tip of the bay’s peninsula. The beach is secluded and is perfect for couples looking for a romantic time alone.
Watersports activities such as snorkeling, kayaking, windsurfing and paddle boarding abound in Deadman's Bay. Gentle winds pass through the calm and protected bay, creating the ideal environment beginners learning to windsurf or paddleboard. This area also offers excellent snorkeling and swimming. If you're looking for rolling surf and waves, best head to Big Reef bay on the windward side of the island.
Other sights to expect on Peter Island are the different tropical flowers and animals indigenous to the island. Here, you'll even find cactus--very unusual for these islands!
Peter Island offers more than just a romantic getaway. This private island allows you to experience nature at its finest; idyllic bays, lovely beaches and tropical flora and fauna. If you're not staying at Peter Island Resort & and Spa, the best way to see Peter Island is on a Virgin Islands day boat charter from Pirate's Paradise Adventures.
