I am blogging from my balcony overlooking Great Bay on St. Thomas for added inspriration. Today we took a British Virgin Island (BVI) tour that we probably should have done the 1st day, but it was nonetheless excellent.
From Red Hook, USVI, we sailed past the North shore of St. John’s, past the big island of Tortola, BVI, on our way to Virgin Gorda, one of the eastern most British Virgin Islands. Upon reaching Virgin Gorda, we landed near Spanish Town and headed to tour the Baths National Park at Devil’s Bay on the far south west end of the island.

What makes these rocks interesting is that they are found next to the ocean, unlike your typical boulders/baths which appear in more mountainous regions like
Colorado. Apparently, this natural phenomenon only occurs near the water here in Virgin Gorda and the Seychelles Islands. Much like beer goggles, the nearby water really helps make these rocks much more attractive as the photos show.
