What is the prettiest British Virgin Island?

The prettiest British Virgin Island is widely considered to be Jost Van Dyke for its postcard beaches — White Bay’s powdery sand and turquoise water frame the iconic Soggy Dollar Bar, and Sandy Cay nearby is a perfect crescent of beach surrounded by reef. For dramatic geology, Virgin Gorda wins: the Baths’ giant granite boulders create a maze of tidal pools and grottos found nowhere else in the Caribbean. For untouched and remote, Anegada — the only coral island in the BVI — has 10 miles of white beach and shallow flats that bonefishermen travel for. Each island is photogenic in a different register; the best itinerary visits all three. See BVI itineraries.
