The Copper Mine

The Copper Mine, now a national park, was mined in the 1860s by Cornish miners. The remains of the mine's smoke stack, engine house and shafts are still there. Indigenous flora, including cactus, bromeliads and wild ferns grow on Gorda Peak. From the viewing platform of this national park there is a sweeping view of Tortola, Beef Island and the Dogs.
