A perfect combination of the familiar and the exotic, the U.S. Virgin Islands are a little bit of America in the Caribbean, with the addition of beautiful tropical beaches and excellent resorts. The nearby British Virgin Islands have an even slower pace with more low-key--though often quite exclusive--resorts that offer a focus on personal service. All the islands offer easy access to excellent diving and snorkeling. |
