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

We really lucked out during our visit to The Baths. It was raining that morning, and we decided to go for it anyway. Once it cleared up and the sun came out, we were the only people in sight. I've heard it's generally very crowded, so it was so incredible to be there alone. The "hike" (really more of a... More

I have visited the Baths many times while sailing in BVI. As always, the boulders and related pools are beautiful, if not spectacular. We came by dinghy to discover that the place was over crowded with cruise ship visitors. Try to plan your trip when a ship has not invaded the island. But even with the crowd, the visit was... More

Worth the hike to the bottom and worth the hike over to Devils bay between the boulders! They sell souveniers at the beach. Stop by the "Top of the Bath" for a cold one! It will cost you $3.00 per person for entrance to the Baths.
