The Dogs
Protected by the British Virgin Islands National Parks Trust, The Dogs are a group of six islands lying halfway between Tortola and Virgin Gorda. The islands are named for the extinct monk seal (lobo marina, sea wolf) that had colonies on The Dogs before being obliterated by hunters.
Today The Dogs are wildlife sanctuaries for marine life and birds such as the sooty, bridled and roseate terns as well as the red-billed tropicbird. The Dogs are fringed with coral and are known for superior snorkelling and diving attractions such as Joe's Cave, Flinstones and Wall-to-Wall. The BVI National Trust has placed moorings around The Dogs for anchoring.
