If it's your first time, you may want to consider going to Virgin Gorda. It's lovely and interesting! Also, it's listed in that book -- 1,000 Places To Go Before You Die! Here's a site for wonderful map and lots of info:

All cruise ships will have an excursion going there ... or you can go on your own via water taxi or private excrusion. The ship's excursion is the "easy way".

Since we've already been to The Baths several times, our new very favorite is an excursion called "Island Sailaway" (3 times on this one) which is on a sailing catamaran with a snorke stop and a beach/bar stop at "Pirates Blight" on Norman Island.

On our last trip to Tortola we did "BREWERS BAY -Secret Beach" and loved it. It's a bit of a long trip over some bad roads ... but worth it! Our review is posted here in case you are interested ... scroll or just click below:

Hope you'll love Tortola as much as we do! Please feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Thanks so much for the info.I will read your review! We are considering the Freedom cruise to Tortola, St Thomas, and Antigua in early 2010.We like to plan ahead. I will probably have more ???
