Norman Island

The Bight

The Bight at Norman Island is one of the most popular and protected anchorages in the British Virgin Islands, offering a scenic and secure haven for boaters. Nestled between rugged green hills and calm turquoise waters, The Bight provides excellent mooring options with over 75 mooring balls available on a first-come, first-served basis. Its natural shelter from prevailing winds makes it an ideal spot to overnight, whether you're arriving late in the day or planning to explore the island for a while.

This anchorage is well-suited for vessels of all sizes, and the presence of clearly marked mooring balls ensures a hassle-free experience for cruisers looking to avoid anchoring. The area is patrolled regularly for safety and mooring fee collection. With quick access to attractions like the legendary pirate caves and some of the best snorkeling in the BVI, The Bight is a favorite stop for charterers and private yachts alike.

In addition to its practical appeal, The Bight offers lively shoreside options including the famous Willy T floating bar and Pirate’s Bight restaurant, both of which are just a dinghy ride away from the mooring field. Whether you're stopping for a quiet night or staying for the social scene, The Bight delivers convenience, protection, and a quintessential Virgin Islands experience.
