A Sanctuary for Sustainability

 

Located in the North Sound region of the British Virgin Islands, Oil Nut Bay stands as a sanctuary that prioritizes environmental stewardship. The low-density community dedicates half of its 400 acres to green space, while solar power is the main energy source for essential amenities.

Homes and villas are built to LEED energy specifications and blend seamlessly with the landscape; several even have living green roofs overflowing with native flora. Guests can enjoy activities like turtle tagging and mangrove kayaking in glass-bottom kayaks. The turtle tagging experience offers a unique chance to work alongside researchers, fostering indelible memories and promoting environmental awareness. The Ranger Program allows younger guests to immerse themselves in eco-friendly activities that nurture a deep connection with nature. Moreover, the onsite animal rescue barn provides a haven for rescued animals, including horses, emus, tortoises, and flamingos.
