Can anyone tell me if there is a restaurant at the marina, or do you have to go off the property. Suggestions?
Also how far is it to Riteway, (minutes in a cab)
Thanks all!

There is a restaurant at the marina. It isn't fantastic but it beats having to go out to grab something after a day of traveling. Not sure on the distance to Riteaway. We usually provision everything and have it delivered to the boat. Bentley's team at Marine Max has always done a great job with putting everything away for us which makes it nice to arrive to a fully stocked boat.

Thanks C Davis. That is certainly a nice touch having your provisions stored for you. We place an order too, but like to pick out our fresh fruits and vegs. So I guess the restaurant isn't a Pussers. Hard to tell what is old and new information.

There is also Red Rock over at East End Bay, about a 1-1/2 miles back towards the airport on the road, or you could probably dinghy to it. Just lift your engine and paddle when crossing between Buck island and Tortola. We've always enjoyed our meals there.

The pussers was just up the street but it closed at least a year ago. The name of restaurant in the marina is Calamaya. We have eaten breakfast and dinner there a few times and it is a good reliable option. Friendly staff.

Rite Way in the Fat Hog Bay area is about two miles. But, one Mart and I think Bobby's and the Pasea Rite Way will pick you up at the marina, wait while you shop and return you at no cost - except for a generous tip.

Rite Way in RT won't do free pickups on Sundays - don't know if the other Rite Way's have that policy or not.
Life involves risks, take some prudent ones (NOT with the BVI ferries)!
