My friends and I chartered a boat in BVI the first week of September two years ago. One day we were lucky enough to visit The Baths and literally be the ONLY ones there! It was amazing being able to explore through the rocks and enjoy the water, especially with no one else around. This is a must if you're... More

A great place to visit. You can anchor right offshore independently or take one of the bouys provided and take dingy to shore but beach is usually very crowded and people generally don't appreciate your using motor. Have been her at least two dozen times over the past 35 years and it doesn't wear off. While in are sail on... More

We traveled here on our own cruising from Tortola by speedy. It's a gorgeous place with large boulders and pools of water. It was like we were exploring! Many tight spaces to crawl through so not very ideal with people with mobility issues. At the end of it all was devil's bay, a beautiful crystal clear beach. We noticed many... More

Wonderful place and the snorkelling was great. We loved the Devils Bay walk and would have stayed there all day.

I took a tour boat to this place from St Thomas Island for my 40th Birthday. Wow, I was inspired and the geography of this place is mind bending.

Great place to take the kids and experience the trek! We've visited here twice while sailing the BVI, first with couple and second with our kids. It was fun seeing it through their eyes!

The Baths are wonderous. Walking through the rock formations is a must-do when in the BVIs. It is absolutely beautiful. The best way to experience the Baths is to snorkel from your boat up to the beach - we saw squid, lots of fish, and beautiful coral. End your visit with a walk to the top of the hill where... More

You must pack your camera to take pix on your trek through the Baths. Totally worth crawling in small spaces and walking up wet wooden stairs to see all the sites. The reward was the beautiful beach on the other end. And a second reward with Pain Killers and fries back at the bar when our 'tour' was done!

This was a great visit which we did in two parts. First we dinghy'd to the main beach, left our snorkel gear in the dinghy and swam to shore (with Tevas). From there we walked the trail through the rocks to Devil's Bay, swam a bit and walked back. I wish I had had a waterproff camera. I did carry... More
