Great Harbor, Peter Island, BVI Cruises

Great Harbor, Peter Island, BVI Cruise Port

• While much of the area is private (and owned by the Amway corporation), the nearby award-winning Peter Island Resort and Spa includes several restaurants that may have room for additional guests.
   
• This is a fantastic place for snorkeling, if you're mindful of the local fishermen running their nets into the bay every afternoon. Keep an eye on the birds: if you see them feeding close to shore, it's a great time to spot large schools of fish, such as tarpon, barracuda, and baitfish; there are plenty of coral reefs in the area as well.
   
• For divers, there's a chance to check out the remains of the ship Fearless. Considered a fairly calm area in which to dive, the National Parks trust has put out mooring balls so you can find the site; while you're exploring the wreck, you might also run into aquatic life, including various fish, rays, and turtles.
   
• Since the island is largely private, Great Harbour is a serene place to bring some food, kick back on the beach, and relax while you watch the waves.
