British Virgin Islands / Car Rental
There are places worth visiting scattered around the islands – beaches, restaurants, beach bars, the supermarket for your shopping if you are staying in a villa, so if you do not want to depend on taxis, the best idea is to hire a car or a scooter.
Some of the roads in the BVIs are extremely steep and you may also find yourself on unmade tracks to get to remote beaches, so it is important to have a 4-wheel- drive vehicle. You may want to check the tyres and brakes. Be aware that over Christmas and sometimes the carnival season there can be a shortage of cars on the islands, so you are advised to book well in advance, otherwise it may be impossible to get hold of one. You need to be at least 25 years old to drive a hire car in the BVI, and all drivers will need a local driving permit. These cost US$10 and can be obtained from the car hire company when you hire the car on presentation of a valid driver’s licence from your home country.
