A perfect escape for honeymooners, privacy seekers or anyone desiring an alternative from the half mile crescent shaped private beach at Rosewood Little Dix Bay, the Beach Drop service offers comfortable roundtrip transfer to sand and surf on Virgin Gorda's north and south sides.

Where to head on your Beach Drop getaway from Rosewood Little Dix Bay? The island's most beautiful beaches, of course:
Savannah Bay: A favorite of guests and locals alike, this lengthy stretch is lapped by calm, shallow waters and has palm tree umbrellas perched on sand dunes. Close reef beds can be snorkeled by all ages, and friendly turtles, stingrays and pelicans make frequent visits.
Pond Bay: Tucked just to the right of Savannah Beach, Pond Bay is named for a small salt pond located one-half-mile from the beach. The sands are quite fetching, and flamingoes and white egrets occasionally make their way from the pond to the beach.
Mountain Trunk: Small and flat, with exotic black sand, Mountain Trunk is a nice spot with a water trampoline, palm tree umbrellas and lounge chairs for enjoyment.
Long Bay: Wonderful for snorkeling, and sea shell collecting with a plum for privacy, Long Bay is barely frequented thanks to land access via bumpy dirt road. Ah, but the Beach Drop Boston Whaler knows the way…
Casey Bay: Small and intimate, Casey Bay is located just left of Rosewood Little Dix Bay and right below the cliff-side home of Sense, A Rosewood Spa®. The beach is only accessible via boat or a small path from the spa and is a dream location for a small sunset wedding ceremony.
Valley Trunk: Good snorkeling among submerged boulders when the seas are calm. And when they're not, Valley Trunk is simply a nice beach with a mile or so of pure sugary white sand for soaking up the sun.
Spring Bay: A great family beach with big boulders to climb and plunge from and wonderful snorkeling in the blue. Youngsters and non-swimmers enjoy a small, shallow pool, and on Thursdays Little Dix hosts a lunchtime grilled picnic for resort guests.
Devil's Bay: Linked by path to the beautiful Baths - Virgin Gorda's most renowned destination by far - Devil's Bay is great for snorkeling, sunbathing and exploration. Beach umbrellas offer daylong respite from the sun, and shady picnic tables are great for enjoying local drinks and bar food from nearby restaurants and a beach bar.
Special rates at Rosewood Little Dix Bay start at $395 per night, double occupancy, including breakfast. For more information on the Beach Drop service or to make reservations at Rosewood Little Dix Bay, please contact 888.ROSEWOOD.
