Virgin Gorda and The Baths

on
September 4, 2026

I picked 9am because I read the baths can get crowded with more than one ship in port.
At the time I booked the excursion, we were the only ship scheduled to be in port…

on
May 23, 2025

In St. Thomas they have the Sky Ride to Paradise Point which costs $35 on the ship or $30 at the ticket window. This is offered under excursions for Norwegian which means you can use your $50 excursion credit for a free ticket. That’s exactly what I did.
