Spot Guide › British Virgin Islands › Beef Island › Long Bay, Beef Island wing area
Beef Island, British Virgin Islands · 18.4397, -64.5269
Best wind
East-to-west regional trade-wind flow
Season
Wingers observed in November; a late-March discussion reports highly variable wind after previously frequent trade-wind days
Water
Caribbean north-side coastal water with possible swell; exact reef, depth and launch line are not documented
Experience
Community-observed wing area — exact launch and rescue plan require local confirmation
Hazards
Sparse local foil presence and incomplete depth, reef, current, vessel, wind-shadow and rescue information. Prolonged wind shutdowns are possible, and the observed riding does not establish beginner suitability.
Parking & access
The forum names Long Bay north of the airport but gives no rigging area, public parking right or recovery point. Confirm shore access and airport/road constraints locally.
“Progression Project forum voyage report says the only wing riders observed during a November week in the British Virgin Islands were around Long Bay just north of the airport. A local follow-up describes the regional wind as east-to-west and notes that north-side swell can remain available, while also warning that wind can shut down for multi-week weather interruptions.”
