Wesley Weir is a seaside settlement on the eastern end of Tortola in the British Virgin Islands, a British Overseas Territory. Adjacent to the famous signposted "Eye in the Sky", it is situated at the junction of emerald green hills and the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea.
The area is undulating, with tranquil bays and coral reefs. As part of the East End community of Tortola, Wesley Weir retains its pristine natural beauty, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and small, secluded beaches.
