Jost Van Dyke very unique experience

Jost Van Dyke, the smallest of the British Virgin Islands is a sparsely populated, but heavily visited paradise of bars, coral reefs and turquoise waters. The island is particularly favored by the yachting crowd, although there is ferry service from Tortola and Saint John.

The Main Harbour is the mooring destination of most boats visiting the island and it is here that most of the bars and restaurants on Jost Van Dyke are located. Foxy’s is perhaps the best known of these, since it has been serving tourists and residents alike since the 1960s. Foxy himself will often provide the singing entertainment and dancing goes on through the night. On New Year’s Eve, the harbour is filled with thousands of visitors who ring in the new year with a rousing celebration.
