Spa Breaks

'Leha Leha' is the Balinese way of describing peace, relaxation and daydreaming, and there is no better place to do this than at the Necker Island Spa. Bali Leha is built into a cliff overlooking the sea and whilst being pampered by a fabulous range of treatments, you can enjoy  the beautiful ocean views, or close your eyes and drift away to the gentle sounds of the sea. A wonderful treatment list incorporates all the usual things you could expect from a five star spa, along with some special extras. Bali Leha is yet another place on Necker Island dedicated to the nourishment and revitalisation of your mind, body and soul.

Climate

The British Virgin Islands enjoy a sub-tropical climate that is tempered by cooling Trade Winds. Temperatures are warm year-round, with little variation throughout the year. The temperature of the sea gravitates towards the mid to high twenties which is ideal for swimming. Night-time temperatures are also very pleasant. Rainfall is relatively low, however, as with any tropical destination, showers are common and they are often heavy but short – they can occur at any time.

The driest months are from January to July, with a brief peak in rainfall during the month of May. During these months humidity is low, the days are sunnier and the temperatures are not yet at their hottest, making it the most popular time to visit.

The wettest months are August to December, peaking in October and November. However, since showers are usually short, often centre on the mountains and are almost always followed by sunshine, holidaymakers are still attracted to the island during this time. Temperatures are hotter and humidity higher during this time, so you may not find it as comfortable. 

It is important to remember that during the rainy season, tropical showers can cause flash flooding and landslides. In general, this is most likely to happen during the hurricane season, which lasts from June to November, but particularly between August and November.

Your experienced crew will guide you through inimitably beautiful surroundings, seeing to your every need with wonderful hospitality and service. Unforgettable activities available on this unique trip include snorkelling in a rare coral reef at Norman Island, protected by caves and only accessible by boat, or a visit to Anegada, the only complete coral island in the British Virgin Islands.

Island-hopping
Water Activities

The best way to experience The British Virgin Islands as a whole is by exploring the inviting azure waters which surround the islands and cays. A luxury catamaran cruise or yacht charter may satisfy your inner voyager, whilst a scuba-dive adventure will uncover the abundant and colourful sealife thriving under the surface. There is much more to The British Virgin Islands than the miles of unspoilt powdered sands and our featured luxury resorts, located on the largest islands, showcase the very best of this divine location.

Water Activities
Nature

Gorda Peak is Virgin Gorda’s highest peak and is surrounded by a forested wilderness with hiking trails right up to the top. It is a very peaceful place and the habitat of rare birds and lizards – it is possible to see wildlife, including hummingbirds, within the island’s lush landscapes and greenery. A lookout point at the top offers spectacular views back down on the island and the vibrant anchorage at North Sound is where yachts drift in and out with the same ease as is the preferred pace of this tranquil region.

Nature
Heritage

Little Fort National Park on Virgin Gorda is a wildlife sanctuary and also home to the ruins of a Spanish fortress, including the remains of a munitions store. However, access to this site requires a hike along a difficult, rugged, undeveloped trail. There are also the remains of an old copper mine at Mine Hill on Virgin Gorda that was once used by Spaniards who travelled through the region in the 18th Century, then used by English miners who came from Cornwall and mined there until the mine’s closure in 1862. The area is also home to White-tailed Tropicbirds, a bird that dives from great heights into the sea to catch food.

Heritage
Shopping

The Yacht Harbour at Spanish Town has a small selection of shops that sell items including traditional crafts, beachwear, jewellery and gifts with a nautical theme. Duty-free shops can be found on St Thomas Island if you’re looking to combine retail therapy with island exploring. Furthermore, the island of Tortola is home to an eclectic mix of art shops, island-made jewellery and traditional Caribbean resort wear clothing boutiques.
