Nanny Cay Travel Guide

Nanny Cay, located on the south side of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands, is a premier marina and resort destination. Originally three separate cays—Big Cay, Little Cay, and Miss Peggy Cay—they were consolidated in the 1970s to create a unified landmass for marina and resort development. Today, Nanny Cay is connected to Tortola by a short bridge, making it easily accessible.The marina boasts berths for 180 motor cruisers and yachts, along with two boat lifts capable of handling large catamarans. This makes it a popular departure point for crewed yachts and a hub for boat repairs and maintenance. Beyond the marina, Nanny Cay offers a range of amenities including a hotel, waterfront townhouses, restaurants, shops, a supermarket, dive shop, water sports center, gym, and spa.Nanny Cay has a colorful history, including a stint under Guinness ownership and a record-breaking 12-year receivership by Barclays Bank. Today, it thrives under new ownership, offering a blend of relaxation and activity for boaters and vacationers. Visitors can enjoy the freshwater pool, beach access at PegLegs Bar, and various recreational activities.
