Anegada is the second largest island of the British Virgin Islands but also the least populated island with only 285 residents. Located just a few hour sail North East of Virgin Gorda, it is one of the most stunning places of the British Virgin Islands. If you are looking to spend a second day somewhere, we highly recommend Anegada. While in Anegada, you will be able to experience some of the most beautiful beaches of the British Virgin Islands, visit some of the best beach bars in the world, eat the world famous Anegada Lobster, and watch the most amazing sunsets.

#5 - The Settlement

The Settlement is the town where you will find all the local housing. There is not much to do as a tourist in this area, but it is a great spot to drive around and see how the locals live on the island. The settlement is also home to the iguana sanctuary, where you can see iguanas being raised until they are ready to be released into the wild safely.
