My boyfriend and I are planning a week vacation in your part of the world in July and since you seem to be the expert of the BVI, we wanted to get some good diving advice! We try to make this trips as low budget as possible but don't want to cut anything on the diving! Any suggestions? We read a few things about JVD and its famous Stress free bar and might stay there for 3 days. Which island should we explore next?
Thanks in advance for your help!
