Hiking Trails

Meander through Guana Island's beautiful mountains, hills and valleys on the 12 mile hiking trail. On the way you will pass Long Man's Point, where you can take a dip in the cliff-side natural pool. For the more adventurous souls, there is Sugarloaf Mountain's 806-foot summit, reach the top and you are rewarded with a panoramic view of the surrounding islands.

Organic Orchard

Organic Orchard

Take a tour around Guana's organic orchard where a cornucopia of luscious tropical fruits is thriving. Whilst the orchard's harvest can be found daily in the dining room, there is nothing better than fruit straight from the tree.

Seven Beaches

The Club

Surrounded by jasmine, this 18th Century hilltop building serves cocktails each evening. At The Club you can dine under the stars on a candle-lit terrace, mingle with other guests or simply curl up with a good book in the library.

Tennis

Guana Island has two tennis courts, one Omni court and one Hydro court complete with racket hire.

Watersports

Life in the British Virgin Islands is all about the water and Guana Island is no different. There are three very distinct dive sites, White Bay's reefs are home to over 125 varieties of tropical reef fishes and Muskmelon Bay's Crab Cove is the perfect place to swim with large, oceanic fishes like tuna and king mackerel. North Bay is the spot for experienced divers looking for deep reefs and wrecks, whilst Monkey Point on Guana's southerly tip is a must for snorkelers. If you prefer to stay above the water there are boat charters available for full and half day cruises.Explore the caves onNorman Island, otherwise know as Treasure Island, and take a swim at Pirate’s Bight. Or else end theday with cocktails on an sunset cruise to nowhere in particular. If you chase the sunset long enough,you may be lucky enough tothe elusive Green Flash.

Massage and Yoga

Unwind with a massage on White Bay Beach, with nothing to distract you but the gentle breeze and the sound of the waves. Skilled therapists are on hand to indulge you with a full-body massage or special treatment. Or let the spa services come to you and treat yourself to an in-room treatment. Focus the mind and arrange a private or group yoga session in the aptly named Garden of Eden.
