Escape the ordinary and dive into a tropical paradise! Tucked away in the heart of the British Virgin Islands lies Peter Island, a private haven.

So, get ready to tick off your bucket list – here are the top things to do on Peter Island.
Snorkel or Dive on Dead Chest Island
Dead Chest Island is a large rock between Peter Island and Salt Island. It is where the notorious British pirate Arthur Teach, better known as Blackbeard, allegedly abandoned 15 of his men. According to the story, he was most displeased with them and left them with only a bottle of rum. Hence, the song “15 Men on a Dead Man’s Chest, Yo Ho Ho, and a Bottle of Rum.”
The island is an uninhabited National Park with three dive sites. They are Coral Gardens, Dead Chest West, and Painted Walls, which is one of the most photogenic dive sites in the BVI.
