The Baths at Virgin Gorda are a stunning natural phenomenon featuring massive granite boulders scattered along the coast, forming secluded coves, natural pools, and grottoes that create a truly unique experience for adventurers.

These formations, born from the gradual cooling of magma, present a landscape that feels almost otherworldly. A well-maintained trail equipped with steps and rope handrails invites visitors to navigate through the boulders. The crystal-clear waters here are perfect for swimming and snorkeling, offering chances to discover hidden rock pools and the vibrant underwater ecosystem. Guests can venture further into the caves and grottoes, free to explore to their heart's content. 

Getting there: There are several ways to access The Baths: take a ferry from Tortola to Spanish Town in Virgin Gorda, hop in a taxi in Spanish Town for a direct ride to The Baths, or arrive by dinghy from nearby anchored yachts. 

Pro tip: wear suitable footwear for a safe and enjoyable hike along the trail and into the water.
