Peter Island

Peter Island has an interesting folklore history where the famous pirate Blackbeard

supposedly abandoned some of his crew to their death on Dead Chest Island. The

men were washed up in Deadman's Bay which is now the main resort beach. The

neighboring Norman Island was the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's

"Treasure Island".

Wreck of the Rhone

On October 29, 1867, the 310' Royal Mail Steamship, "Rhone" had just

arrived at Peter Island and was anchored off Dead Man's Bay when a

hurricane descended upon her. Their anchor dragged and broke free from its

holding. Before the captain and crew could take control of the ship, she

foundered off Lee Bay at Salt Island.

winds blowing north and they consist of Anguilla, Antigua and

Barbuda, the British and United States Virgin Islands, the
