Moskito Island

Moskito Island is a private island in the British Virgin Islands featuring four large estates, each with its own distinct style and character. The property includes quiet beaches with soft sand, green hills, and clear waters suitable for swimming and snorkeling, along with trails for walking and areas for various outdoor activities.

The island has ties to the development of the British Virgin Islands and has remained largely private and untouched over time. While it has early settlement history, it has evolved into a place developed primarily for private retreats and personal use.

Access to the island is by boat from other parts of the British Virgin Islands, with the boat ride being part of the experience and offering views along the way. Visitors should bring supplies such as water and snacks since facilities are limited, and the best time to visit is during warmer months when weather is typically sunny and calm.

Richard Branson acquired the island in 2007 and built an 11-bedroom house that now opens to guests seeking a private retreat. The home sits at the heart of the estate and welcomes those looking for an exclusive getaway in the Caribbean.
