British Virgin Islands Camping & Campgrounds |
Beach camping is permitted in |

|
Camping is forbidden except in designated areas, and the prohibition is strictly enforced. Probably due to its strong sailing tradition, the British Virgin Islands have managed to convince tourists to do their camping on the water, anchored on an expensive charter sailboat, instead of staying in a cheap canvas/nylon shelter on land. The strict no-camping enforcement helps keep the beaches clean for everyone.
