The Indians

Regarded as one of the best shallow dives in the BVIs, these four rocky pinnacles rise and descend roughly the same fifty feet above and below the water surface, which form abundant coral gardens, a 15-foot tunnel, lots of fish and an underwater cavern.

Reviewed By sunandsand2017 - Myrtle Beach, United States

Our Captain was able to position our catamaran relatively close to The Indians. When our group (ages 13 - 70+) swam toward the the archipelago, we snorkeled above beautiful shallow coral reefs; a few minutes later we found ourselves looking down into a bottomless hole brimming with fish of all shapes and sizes and abundant sea life. There was so much for both our snorkelers and scuba divers to see! We totally agree that The Indians should be listed among the five most popular dive and snorkeling sites in the British Virgin Islands.

Hooiberg

Looking for adventure? Climb Hooiberg, Aruba's famous mountain located at the center of the island, with a view from its 541-foot peak that extends as far as Venezuela on a clear day.

This is a great workout if you're looking for one. It's not too difficult. I was fine wearing sandals. Go early when it's cooler and bring water

Beautiful coastal walk can be had here. And the balmy wind will keep you cool. At least it blows AWAY from the cliffs!

The Baths

The most well-known attraction on the island, these giant boulders or batholiths, brought to the surface by volcanic eruptions, are scattered about forming a beautiful grotto and tranquil pools.

Reviewed By SunshineW3239 - Boston, United States

On my family's Star Clipper cruise in December, we indulged in daily beach hopping. My favorite beach by far was The Baths on Virgin Gorda, BVI. I opted to explore the easier trail and strolled down a winding path to a gorgeous, mostly deserted beach studded with huge boulders. The scenery was stunning. After taking photos along the water's edge, I sat at a shady table to write in my journal. During my peaceful morning, I enjoyed the sound of the sea, the warm sunshine and the blissfully serene setting. Up above the beach at the top of the trail, colorful shops and an inviting outdoor restaurant with a swimming pool await visitors who need a break from the sun.

The 3 Eyes National Park

A group of interconnected caves near Santo Domingo.

Reviewed By LuizDutraNeto - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

The "Monumento Natural Cueva Los Tres Ojos", also known as "Parque Nacional Los Tres Ojos", is probably the most visited attraction in Santo Domingo! The caves and lagoons were discovered about a hundred years ago and are really breathtaking! A winding staircase leads visitors to a series of limestone caves. An underground river - "La Brujuela - feeds freshwater to three interconnected lagoons, locally called "eyes" for their eye-oval-shapes. The first one, "Lago de Azufre", is famous for its blue waters (due to the presence of calcium minerals in its composition and not due to sulphurous waters, as initially believed), stalactites and stalagmites. Then comes "Lago La Nevera", named after its cold waters. The third "eye", "Lago Las Damas", the shallowest one, was mostly used by women and children. Years later, a fourth lake was discovered, but unlikely the other "eyes", this one is not underground, but open-air and surrounded by a rocky landscape and lush vegetation. It is called "Lago Los Zaramagullones" after some native ducks, and is the deepest one, with beautiful small fishes swimming on its crystal clear waters. Take your time and visit the park, its caves and lakes. You will never regret! Enjoy!

Titou Gorge

A natural water-ride created by two hot springs, a rock pool and a river.

Reviewed By TanAndSand

Don’t let the frigid water keep you from experiencing Titou Gorge. It is absolutely gorgeous and where they filmed Pirates of the Caribbean 2. We booked a tour and our guide provided life jackets and went in with us all the way to the water fall. I jumped in from the edge rather than walking in. It was so much fun!
