Fodor's U.S. & British Virgin Islands

A perfect combination of the familiar and the exotic, the U.S. Virgin Islands are a little bit of America in the Caribbean, with the addition of beautiful tropical beaches and excellent resorts. The nearby British Virgin Islands offer an even slower pace with more low-key—though often quite exclusive—resorts that offer a focus on personal service. All the islands offer easy access to excellent diving and snorkeling.
 
New Coverage: Beach reviews have been expanded and rewritten, restaurant coverage has been expanded, new resorts added, and every aspect of the guide fully updated.
Illustrated Features: Special "Fodor's Features" illuminate two of the most distinctive experiences in the Virgin Islands, diving & snorkeling and charting a yacht. An extensive Experience chapter covers weddings & honeymoons, top attractions, and ferry routes among other important topics.
