What Does BVI Stand For?

BVI stands for British Virgin Islands

The British Virgin Islands (BVI) is a British Overseas Territory located in the Caribbean, consisting of around 60 tropical islands and cays. The four main islands—Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Anegada, and Jost Van Dyke—are known for their stunning beaches, clear turquoise waters, and laid-back atmosphere. Tortola, the largest, is home to the capital Road Town and serves as the economic and cultural hub. The islands are famous for yachting and sailing, especially around the sheltered waters of the Sir Francis Drake Channel, attracting boaters from around the world. The BVI's economy relies heavily on tourism and offshore financial services. While the official currency is the US dollar, the islands retain a distinctly British flavour in governance and legal systems. The territory enjoys a warm, tropical climate year-round, with coral reefs and marine life making it a paradise for snorkelling and diving. Though hit hard by Hurricane Irma in 2017, the islands have been steadily rebuilding. Today, the BVI remains a popular destination for those seeking tranquillity, luxury, and natural beauty.
