TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums British Virgin Islands First time Cooper Island

Hubby ("livin large") and I are on day three of sailing school. I sailed us part way up the Drake, tacking a zillion times and finally made it to
Cooper in time for the last 15 min of happy hour. This place is beautiful!!! We decided to stay for dinner and forego whatever out boat mates are cooking. Kind of a break for us and them probably. Not a bad group for being "unknowns", but I'm looking forward to a nice meal without washing dishes. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Groovin.gif" alt="" />

Love that place! Glad you're enjoying the "school trip" -- I remember mine well! We had a great time but we were always glad for the "free" time at the end of the day! It is definitely not the same as being on vacation down there <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Cooper is great we make it a stop every trip. Snorkeling at Cistern Point is really good and I like to fish from the back of the boat while on the ball and it is usually the best fishing we have on our trip.

We're looking forward to spending more time on Cooper in Nov. last trips we had to anchor in Haulover and since it was our first anchorage we were a bit nervous to leave the boat.

Friday night was our first visit in 5 trips to the Bvi. We believe it is one of Nature's Little Secrets.
