One of the standout features of Virgin Gorda is the iconic geological formation known as “The Baths.” Enormous granite boulders, scattered along the shoreline, create a mesmerizing labyrinth of caves, grottoes, and tidal pools.

A charter to Virgin Gorda can be booked as a Full Day BVI (8AM-4PM) charter, however due to the travel time involved, we HIGHLY recommend our Extended Day BVI (8AM-5:30PM) option so that the remainder of the day doesn’t feel rushed!


Please keep in mind that Virgin Gorda is the furthest destination that day charter boats go to (approximately 30 miles from St John), and is not always accessible due to sea conditions.
