West Tortola - Smuggler's Cove Beach

At the western-most end of Tortola lies Smuggler's Cove, a secluded, sheltered and undeveloped patch of island surrounded by vegetation. Although known for its tranquility, the good snorkelling and seclusion of Smuggler's Cove have been attracting more people looking to escape the beach resort scene. An old car used as a film prop for the 1990 Hollywood remake of The Old Man and the Sea that was filmed on the beach still remains, and sea turtles can be spotted offshore.
