About Peter Island

Peter Island is one of the most tranquil and scenic destinations in the British Virgin Islands, offering protected bays, clear waters and a relaxed atmosphere ideal for guests seeking a peaceful stop during their BVI yacht charter. Its central location makes it an easy and natural addition to most sailing itineraries, particularly when travelling between Norman Island, Cooper Island and Virgin Gorda.

The most popular anchorage is Great Harbour, a calm and sheltered bay perfect for swimming, paddleboarding and snorkelling. Sea turtles and rays are frequently spotted in the area, making it especially appealing for families and nature lovers. The gentle conditions also make Peter Island suitable for both bareboat charters and crewed catamaran holidays.

The island’s resort has recently reopened with new mooring fields, marina improvements, dining options and a pool area, offering guests the option to enjoy time ashore while maintaining a relaxed, low-key atmosphere. For divers and snorkellers, nearby Key Bay is home to the Willy T wreck, an artificial reef that attracts marine life and adds an extra point of interest to the visit.

Peter Island combines natural beauty with comfort and accessibility, making it a reliable and enjoyable destination for guests wanting calm waters, easy mooring and a quiet Caribbean setting during their British Virgin Islands sailing holiday.
