PHOTOS: East End beach J’Ouvert gets wet and wild
Scores of revellers gathered on the eastern end of Tortola on Wednesday for the East End J’ouvert, a vibrant celebration held as part of the territory’s 70th anniversary emancipation festivities.
The crowd danced to the infectious sounds of soca played by local band VIBE and St. Croix’s Pumpa, as they paraded from Long Swamp to Long Bay Beach on Beef Island. As revellers crossed the Beef Island bridge, some took the opportunity to make a dive into the waters below.
BVI News photographer Andre ‘Shadow’ Dawson was on hand to capture the highlights of the event.

It looks like a lot of people making poor diet choices and drinking too much sugary garbage. Take time to eat better and lay off the processed garbage.
