Wednesday, February 17: Virgin Gorda and The Baths

Sailing up to Virgin Gorda and through the Sir Francis Drake Chanel is some of the most picturesque sailing you can do.

We arrive in Spanish Town where a delicious lunch is packed for you then off to The Bath's! Exotic pools and caves are formed with natural boulders… the water movement and acoustics giving you a sense of what it would be to live in Atlantis! Dinner is ashore in Spanish Town with your shipmates and crew.  (B,L,D)

This morning's sail is a comfortable reaching sail down the Sir Francis Drake Chanel and to The Caves of Norman Island for our snorkeling adventure (snorkeling gear is provided-or you are welcome to bring your own).

We'll launch our kayaks for those who wish to explore on the surface of the water. Dinner will be at Pirate's Bight. After dinner, the more adventurous can take the launch to the “William T. Thornton”, a floating nightspot/pirate ship of much ill-repute.  (B,L,D)
