Finally- Virgin Gorda

Last Saturday, we went to the Baths at Virgin Gorda. This was a trip that we had been intending to go on the whole time here, but we never quite made it. This, we both think, is a must-do if you are ever in the islands for more than a few days. A little info on the Baths- “The name "baths" comes from the warm sheltered pools of water in and around the rocks which flood at high tide. Large caves and a huge tunnel through one of the boulders is a result of erosion. These features can be explored by visitors clambering inside and underneath the massive granite boulders. The oldest rocks were thrown together as a result of volcanic eruptions. Newly formed volcanic larva on the seabed over 70 million years ago eventually turned to granite and around 20 million years ago a fault occurred on the seabed and the rocks which we see today were lifted up. The boulders would have been much larger and worn down and rounded by millions of years of erosion from rain, wind and the sea.” Long story short- very cool and BEAUTIFUL.
