TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums British Virgin Islands Post-Irma shade trees on the beach

The boss has demanded I ask this question. (Who holds higher rank: the boss or the captain?) Anyway, the boss wants to know about the post-Irma shade tree situation at Cooper and Norman/Bight. In the past, she has spent most of her time lounging under a tree on the various beaches. She saw a recent video which seems to encourage a "bring your own umbrella plan". thx

Easy solution take her the caves at Norman

The Boss.

Most of the trees in the various locations were wiped out. However - since Irma many of the beach locations have planted new trees. So hard to answer your question - very possible that when you get there new palm trees have been planted.

We spent a couple of days on a mooring at cooper recently and there is very little shade on the beach as compared to the pre Irma days.

They have put out several palm trees on the beach at pirates , the bight, so there is just a little shade available there.

thx

As to captain and boss.
And a solution to non existent shade trees.

The way things have evolved here, I am the Captain, Erica is the Admiral . However, she is an excellent and knowledgeable sailor, hence the Admiral rank.

for the O.P's BOSS, if her heart loves sitting out on the beach, in the shade. When you land in the BVI, you might find a beach umbrella to purchase, or possibly rent. Also , check with your charter company, they may be able too help out, with less hassel.

They may have a shade umbrella sitting with their rental , air scoops, kayaks, flotation toys . And that puppy will come in handy for the entire BVI cruise on several islands .

Cheer the Boss up .

A happy wife, is a happy life.

Cane Garden Bay has lost a lot of trees but there are many many more umbrella options now.
