Long time VG visitor here. After the Travel and Leisure article which “discovered” VG the parks trust is in negotiations with a cruise line for private access from 9-12 on 9 days during the season as well as raining the entry fee to the Baths to 10$ or more.
Closing it to the public has potential ramifications of monetizing the parks through the region and restricting public access.
The Trust maintained that revenue is needed. Just returned from Bonaire where there is a national park fee for visitors entering the marine reserve waters . Why not just collect a visitors fee?
Just my thought
