The baths were probably my favorite site that we saw on the trip. Getting there is a little complex because they are on a separate island from where the cruise ship docks – so you have to find a ferry or other transport from Tortola to Virgin Gorda. However, we had this friendly fellow named Egbert approach us about his service on a private boat that he runs to the island. So, we went along with that.

I think these photos pretty much speak for themselves. It is a beautiful national park. You walk down a path through boulders to a pristine beach. We went snorkeling, and i didn’t want to leave the camera on the beach, so I put it in a (supposedly) waterproof bag. When I opened the bag later, it had an inch of water and a dead camera inside! Boo!

Oh, and let me tell you.. that Egbert is evil with the rum punch he feeds you on the boat ride back. It tastes like koolaid but is extremely lethal! Consider yourself warned if you ever come across him in your travels! lol.
