Voluntourism at Rosewood Little Dix Bay, British Virgin Islands
Situated on the southwestern tip of Virgin Gorda, this long-time Caribbean favorite ticks all the right boxes for a relaxing vacation: an Instagram-worthy palm-lined beach, spacious stone-walled rooms, a pampering cliff-side spa, and three great dining options. This season, however, you can add a little altruism to your stay by volunteering to help restore Little Dix Bay Reef. In partnership with Dive BVI and the Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas, Texas, guests of the property can assist with caring for young coral plants, interact with endangered turtles, and partake in a snorkel safari. Plus: a state-of-the-art underwater camera has been installed to monitor the reef and the marine life it supports so that you can watch the progress of the conservation efforts online well after your holiday.
