Road Town
The capital of the British Virgin Islands and a home port for sailing charters, with a harbor full of masts. The main street has colonial-era buildings, a market and charter piers.
Road Town is the capital and commercial center of the British Virgin Islands. It surrounds Road Harbour, and charter company piers, ferry terminals and cruise ship docks line its shore. The old Main Street preserves colorful wooden houses and stone-built historic buildings, including St. George's Anglican Church, the old prison and a crafts market where you can buy local rum and spices. Nearby are a botanic garden and the Old Government House Museum. Cruise ship days bring big crowds. In the evening, you can watch sailboats return to harbor from a waterfront bar.
