Where is the Cooper Island cruise port?

There is no conventional cruise pier. The practical shore point is Manchioneel Bay; the map pin is the Google Maps place for Cooper Island Beach Club (18.3846475, −64.5129426), a representative bay reference for the island's visitor hub — not a confirmed cruise berth.

Operator destination pages consulted do not state dock or tender for passenger ships. Yacht moorings and dinghy access described by the Beach Club are not used as cruise arrival wording.

About Cooper Island

Cooper Island is a small, largely private volcanic island in the British Virgin Islands on the south side of Sir Francis Drake Channel, roughly five miles from the southeastern shore of Tortola. BVI Tourism notes a handful of private residences and a beachfront resort.

The visitor hub is Manchioneel Bay on the northwest shore, home to Cooper Island Beach Club — an off-grid eco resort with a beach restaurant, rum bar, coffee shop, boutique and limited beachfront rooms. Charter yachts and day boats use the bay's moorings; there is no public ferry or road network. Cruise passengers encounter it as a British Virgin Islands sailing call rather than a built harbour town.

Climate
The British Virgin Islands average about 1150 mm of rain a year, with a wet season from May to November and the heaviest months typically September to November.
