Details About Virgin Gorda

Destinations » Caribbean » Caribbean - Eastern » Virgin Gorda


Two outstanding scenic destinations highlight this Caribbean call. First, "The Baths." This natural wonder - unique in all the Caribbean - consists of giant boulder which tumble across the landscape and atop one another to form labyrinthine caves and clear, salt-water pools that are lit by the rays of the sun. Second is Gorda Sound, a protected anchorage, known the world over by seasoned yachtsmen. Virgin Gorda, Itself, is a rustic cluster of small farms with about 1,000 inhabitants.

Attractions

The Baths represent the stellar natural attraction of the British Virgin Islands, with exotic pools and grottos formed by giant boulders strewn across sand beaches. Explorers will revel in the hidden rooms with shafts of light, snorkelers in the coral ledges and caves, sunbathers/ swimmers in the white sand beaches adding to the sparkling clarity of the water. Be careful of the surge when the north swell is running but enjoy the crashing surf on the boulders!

Adventures

Swim south along the shoreline from The Baths to Devil's Bay; the beach is more secluded there, and the snorkeling is top-drawer. If you're on a boat, watch for sea turtles at The Dogs, a tiny group of islets off Virgin Gorda's western "Beach Coast," where the snorkeling and diving are superb.

Currency
