SWIM ASHORE || Soggy Dollar Bar at White Bay, Jost Van Dyke - British Virgin Islands Dec 2018

Come ashore with me to the home of The Soggy Dollar Bar - the picture-perfect White Bay on the island of Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands. We visited this tiny Caribbean island in December 2018 on a bareboat charter sailing trip, just a few days before Christmas.

This video clearly shows how The Soggy Dollar Bar got its name. Because White Bay has no dock, the only way to access it is by swimming ashore. Hence all the wet dollar bills that are used to pay for the most popular drink in the BVI's: the Painkiller. Made with run, cream of coconut, orange juice, pineapple juice and a generous dusting of freshly-grated nutmeg on top, this quintessential beach cocktail originated right here at the The Soggy Dollar Bar.

Much like the rest of the BVI'S, The Soggy Dollar Bar was destroyed during Hurricane Irma. As you can see in this video, that hasn't stopped them from rebuilding and getting back to business at hand - making delicious drinks in paradise.
