Catch a ferry to Virgin Gorda to gaze on a natural architectural wonder of The Baths and more on this exciting tour near Romney-Pier Park. Your excursion includes a convenient round-trip ferry ride to Virgin Gorda, where you get to witness the geological wonder of oversized granite boulders and cave surroundings known as The Baths. You'll also get an expert tour guide to accompany you as you take a winding trail through The Baths to the white sandy beach by Devil's Bay. Catch scenic views along the way for an unforgettable experience that's perfect for outdoor enthusiasts!

Begin your epic tour by hopping on the ferry and be transported from your cruise ship pier to the British Virgin Islands' third-largest island: Virgin Gorda. Here, you'll get to take a journey along a winding trail that takes you to see The Baths, which lies just south of the sandy white beaches of Spring Bay. Some of the most massive granite boulders in this collection of oversized rock formations boast a 40-inch diameter. Traveling through The Baths' system of hollow structures, sandy beaches, and enormous granite boulders, is like moving through a maze thanks to the position of its rock formations.

As you follow the trail of The Baths, you'll also come across its cavernous structures. Molten lava helped forge these hollow rock formations over time to create the geological wonders that they are today. You'll travel along a rope-handrail trail that takes you up a series of ladders to help you climb the oversized boulders, where you'll get access to the white sandy beaches along Devil's Bay, a favorite for beachgoers and snorkelers alike to swim and go underwater to discover vivid coral and marine life. Take a break to enjoy soaking up the sun before heading back to your pier.

From heading up ladders of oversized granite boulders to witness the breathtaking views of secret coves, this visit to Virgin Gorda offers much for the outdoor enthusiast to explore. Sign up for this scenic excursion today and get ready to make lifelong memories with a visit to the British Virgin Islands.

The Baths

Great excursion! We were picked up right outside or ship and had a great tour guide. We enjoyed the time at the baths and were dropped off back at our ship. Great experience and I will use them again if needed.

Baths Discovery Tour

January 26, 2023

This was a beautiful beach. Small hike down to the beach, where we spent a few hours. Our guide was nice and helpful in navigating some tight areas. Helping us with bags to keep from getting wet. Once on the beach, she checked on us several times. She was in an area if there were any issues. There were only 3 of us on this tour, so it seemed very private. We actually stayed longer than supposed to since we wanted to. One issue was that we didn't realize that we couldn't go back in once we left without going back around and through again, which our guide had told us we could. Also, good to note that if you do want to go and explore some more, just take the stairs and go back around, there are many trails and caves to explore and plenty of time. (make sure your have your entrance ticket)

The Baths Discovery Tour was FANTASTIC

January 13, 2023

Family of 6 from 25-65 and we had a great time. Everything was seamless from ship to ferry to taxi to Baths and back again. We had a great time, stopped to rest when we needed or stopped to take photos as wanted. But the key was the small group as we were able to beat the large cruise line sponsored group to the Baths, thru the Baths and got prime spots on the beach before everyone else. This is the way to see Virgin Gorda!!

Excellent service

I had a fantastic time. My guide was Joy. I was the only person to show up for the tour. I was surprised it was not canceled. Joy helped me with some of the tricker and steeper steps which really helped. I was lucky to have be given the individual attention that a 68 year old woman might need. Joy was a great tour guide for that reason. I would encourage you to take the tour. The sights of great boulders and the ocean were magnificent.
