               MOORING USE



The BVI National Parks Trust

manages the marine environment through the BVI Marine Conservation Programme.   Over 200 moorings are established at throughout the Territory in order to prevent anchor damage on fragile coral reefs and seagrass beds.    All boats must purchase a Marine Conservation Permit to use these moorings from NPT (57 Main Street, Road Town, Tortola; Tel: 494-3904 / 2069), from any charter company, or from Customs at all ports of entry.  

•    Boats are required to use NPT mooring buoys at dive sites and must purchase a Marine Conservation Permit for their use (Marine Parks & Protected Areas Regulations, 1991).   While using a NPT mooring, overnight use is not permitted, it is illegal to fish and there is a 90 minute time limit  
•    Use with caution.    NPT moorings should not be used during times of severe weather or rough waves.  


Buoys are color coded!

•    Yellow / White – Commercial vessels / divers
•    Orange – Snorkel & Day Use
•    Blue – dinghy dock lines
