Virgin Gorda - The Baths(2022)
Thru the Caves to the Beach

Index
Caribbean
December 2022
A series of steps and rope handrails guide explorers along a trail through the boulders
from the beach at The Baths to the sandy expanse that is Devil’s Bay.
This was Carrie's journey

Our 300 passenger Wind Surf was the ONLY ship visiting
Virgin Gorda and Tortola on Christmas Day
except for a 100 passenger yacht

So our experience was very different from that posted
by passengers on the huge cruise ships where the caves
are overwhelmed by hoards of tourists as described by
the report below

"The Baths are a VERY Unique Experience.
The only problem is crowds of tourists from cruise ships"
(see video below)
