Unveil the secluded beauty of Virgin Gorda's coastline with Blue Runner Charters' expert guide to hidden beaches.


Virgin Gorda, the third-largest island in the British Virgin Islands (BVI), is a treasure trove of pristine beaches and untouched natural beauty. While popular spots like The Baths attract many visitors, the island's true charm lies in its secluded beaches accessible only by boat. With Blue Runner Charters and Boat Rentals in Leverick Bay, you can embark on a personalized journey to discover these hidden gems.



Why Explore Virgin Gorda's Hidden Beaches?


Escape the Crowds

While famous beaches have their allure, they can often be crowded during peak seasons. Hidden beaches offer tranquility and a sense of exclusivity, allowing you to relax and unwind in a serene environment.

Unique Experiences

Each secluded beach has its own unique features—whether it's unusual rock formations, untouched coral reefs, or rare wildlife sightings. Exploring these spots offers experiences you won't find elsewhere.




Recommended Hidden Beaches


1. Savannah Bay

A long stretch of white sand bordered by calm, crystal-clear waters, Savannah Bay is perfect for swimming and snorkeling. The bay's gentle slope makes it ideal for families with children.


2. Pond Bay

Nestled between Savannah Bay and Mahoe Bay, Pond Bay is often overlooked, making it a quiet haven. The beach is lined with lush vegetation, providing natural shade and a picturesque backdrop.


3. Spring Bay

Adjacent to The Baths but far less crowded, Spring Bay features large boulders similar to its famous neighbor. Explore hidden pools and grottoes formed by these natural rock formations.


4. Little Dix Bay

Accessible only by boat, Little Dix Bay offers a secluded beach experience with soft sands and gentle waves. It's an excellent spot for a peaceful picnic or a romantic getaway.
