Getting There
No matter how you get to Virgin Gorda, it’s a must see when you’re in the Virgin Islands and is the second most popular tourist destination in the BVIs. You don’t even need to jump through hoops to visit either. You can take a day trip on a charter boat (just don’t forget your passport!), take a fast ferry for a few hours of fun, or you can stay at one of the many beautiful island resorts or villas.
Hey, you can even charter your own boat!
The Baths
One of the most famous natual features is The Baths. Typically, whenever you hear about someone visiting Virgin Gorda, you’re going to hear about their trip to The Baths. Since the island is volcanic in origin, large granite boulders line a good portion of their white sandy beaches. You can walk, swim, snorkel, and explore all around with assistance of hand rails, trails, and signs.
