- An outstanding, accurate chart of the islands and of the roads & features of each island. Every notable SCUBA & snorkeling site is shown, as are main boating routes. Side 1 of Franko's Map of The British Virgin Islands is the finest dive map to date in the Caribbean, much more beautiful because of the nature of the layout of the islands. In addition to the artwork depicting the islands themselves, Franko has drawn up a little layout of BVI's most famous dive site of all - The Wreck of the RMS Rhone. The list of British Virgin Islands dive sites that one could visit is lengthy. In addition to dive sites, the best spots to anchor are shown. This includes all-night anchorage, plus day-only anchorage. Franko's Map of The British Virgin Islands wouldn't be complete with out a selection of 100+ of BVI's must-see, beloved reef creatures. Note the hermit crab scurrying across the sand in front of the drawing of the Wreck of the RMS Rhone. The descending hues of blue that show the ocean depth contours show the viewer the obvious - where the Caribbean ends & the Atlantic begins. Side 2 of Franko's Map of The British Virgin Islands shows the entire string of islands comprising the BVI. It is on this side that one finds the more remote & less visited island of Anegada, with it's long, long horseshoe reef, which has more wreck than we probably know about. This side of the map contains descriptions of each of the main islands themselves, with additional information about airlines, ferries, marine park rules, and the Dive Shops, Charter Boats & Live Aboards, and Marine Photography studios. The main boating routes in and around all of the British Virgin Islands appear as dotted lines on this map. *Cover shows a folded map. This is a flat, laminated map.*
