<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :banana --><img src=http://jammerbabe.com/images/Smiley/banana.gif ALT=":banana"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Cane Garden is great for all of those things....Quito's, Da Wedding, any thing along the beach there is good for a drink and a snack. Makes for a great pub crawl...<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :boobies --><img src=http://jammerbabe.com/images/Smiley/boobies.gif ALT=":boobies"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> Cane garden is great for hanging out...but if you want to see a beautiful beach and probably be all alone, rent a jeep and go to Smugglers. Brewers Bay is good for waves.<br>
<br>
<br>
The best breakfast I have ever had was at a place called the North Shore Shell Museum in either Apple or Carrot Bay. You have to be adventurous...it doesn't look like a restaurant. We were the only ones there...the owner cooked for us and served us and got us all up dancing , singing, and playing home made instruments. I think we paid ten dollars for three people to eat like kings!!!<br>
<br>
Bars: the obvious choice is Bamba's...<br>
<br>
Restaurants: for five star dining in a beautiful romantic atmosphere go to Sugar Mill.....oh, we also loved the restaurant at Sebastian's...don't recall the food so much as the view....it overhangs the beach! <p><IMG SRC="http://www.jammerbabe.com/images/gifs/icon_capegirl.gif"></p><i></i>

Sunburnin,<br>
Before you board the FC at 5 pm you should at least get a drink at Pusser's in Roadtown. You will probably see a lot of Jammers there waiting before boarding. <p></p><i></i>

The North Shore is hard to explain...bare bones...but I had banana filled pancakes with homemade nutmeg rum syrup and my brother had apple filled french toast! May have been bacon and eggs but I honestly don't recall. <p><IMG SRC="http://www.jammerbabe.com/images/gifs/icon_capegirl.gif"></p><i></i>

Sunburnin, <br>
<br>
If you possibly have enough energy and time to exhaust the North Central/West Shore (Cane Garden, Carrot, Apple, and Long Bay), there are some other options. <br>
<br>
The French Restaurant downtown, Le Cabanon, is a BIG favorite of locals. That's where we go when everything else is closed.<br>
<br>
Another good breakfast is at the Jolly Roger Inn at West End. In fact, it was just voted Best Breakfast in the BVI. A restaurant which won "best" or honorable mention is Eclipse in East End. (best Appetizers, best Chef, etc.) The Tamarind Club, above Josiah's Bay, won "Best Gourmet Dining"<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, a favorite spot of mine, Virgin Queen, voted Best Pizza, just burned down last week! SkyWorld was voted "Best Place to Take Visitors". I wasn't impressed with the lunch last summer, but have had many dinners there recently that were all great! Arrive in time to watch the sunset over cocktails - you have a 360-degree view of all the islands, even Anegada on a clear day. At night you can see the lights from San Juan! Take a jacket, it's the coolest and windiest spot on the island. <br>
<br>
When you reach Sandra's, pick up a copy of the BVI Guide magazine - she has them in the office. It will give you a complete list of restaurants, bars, beaches, etc. If you want to do a daysail on a catamaran, see my friend Robin of "Kuralu". He does a great trip! (Just voted "Best", too.) <br>
<br>
As to beaches, the amount of waves depends upon the swell direction. They prevail from the east, leaving all the north shore beaches pretty calm. Occasional north or northwest swells require a bit more effort to find a quiet spot. <p><br>

My! I think we really missed out! We arrived too late for the stowaway party, never saw the north side of the island, although we did a back-to-back, we went around with the purser and our good friends over the weekend...I think we need to try this again!!! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><IMG SRC="http://www.jammerbabe.com/images/gifs/icon_swim.gif"></A>
