How to Travel to Tortola, For Less

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - April 1, 2016

It’s one of the most beautiful places in the Caribbean: the British Virgin Island of Tortola.

It’s a varied destination, with something for everyone, whether you’re chartering a boat or in for a culinary excursion.

But it’s also home to some of the region’s best beaches, including the white sands of Long Bay.

The latter has a rather exotic quality, with energetic waves and a sweeping vistas.

And it’s also the site of a very good all-inclusive resort: the Long Bay Beach Club, one of Elite Island Resorts’ properties across the region.

The Beach Club is largely comprised of on-the-sand lofted rooms with unbeatable views of the sea and neighboring islands.

And now it’s even easier to get there, with a special rate that means as much as 30 percent off the normal price.

So what are you waiting for?

Here’s how to book it.

(And don’t forget to use Cape Air to get to Tortola from San Juan or St Thomas).
