Best time to visit: December to April (dry season), avoiding the June-to-November Atlantic hurricane season for the calmest sailing and beach conditions.
Getting around: Guests typically arrive via a scheduled flight to Necker's private airstrip on Beef Island (Tortola) followed by a boat transfer, or by yacht directly to the island; once there, the compact 74-acre island is easily explored on foot or by golf cart, with Virgin Gorda a short boat ride away.

Current trends: Necker Island continues to trade on ultra-exclusive whole-island buyouts and Richard Branson's personal brand, with its post-Hurricane-Irma rebuild bringing sustainability upgrades and expanded accommodation, while the floating sushi bar in the beach pool remains its most talked-about signature experience; Virgin Gorda's The Baths continues to draw day-trippers from Necker and other BVI charters for its granite boulder formations.
