Not for the shy or faint of heart, The Bomba Shack full moon party is a monthly bash that puts other parties to shame. Literally hundreds of people gather at "The Shack" during the nights the moon is full to drink, dance, eat grilled chicken and party all night long to the best of the local bands. Bomba is the... more

We went here to hang out one night, and it was fun. The chicken made me sick, though. Others that I was with tried other things on the menu, and enjoyed it. The mushroom drinks are something else! more

AWESOME...out of the way home grown paradise. This was the highlight of a cruise. I spoke with our cruise director "Q" on the HA Ship Zuiderman...his comment was "Mate, it's off the [-] hook"...and he was right. A must see for those who get to Tortola. Can't wait to go back.. more

After spotting a sweet little left just out front of Bomba's I decided to catch a few hours on the board. Watch the paddle out/back in which is shallow and littered with fire coral. After a delightful time, I came in for a relaxing "refreshment" and it still brings a giddy smile to my face. I will be back. more

This place is a kind little rocking shack! We didn't go for the famous Full moon party, but just a random Wednesday BBQ night. Local reggae band, playing sweet tunes cut out when the power went off (this can happen). The party didn't stop and people were quite friendly. Look out for Bomba's punch! You will enjoy! more

Tortola is an incredible place and Bomba's is a unique stop. Bomba's shack may not be much but the locals make up the awesome atmosphere. We got to experience a "tea party." Bomba had just opened another shack across the road where they served some great food also. Go there with an open mind & take it all in.....it is... more

Its difficult to call Bomba Shack a shack (it is actually a couple of plywood walls with a tin roof). It is located on Aplle Bay, about 100 yards from Sebastions. The Bomba Punch is incredibly strong and every full moon he hosts a mushroom party. Many people smoke ganja openly and the floor consists of sand. I found over... more
