Just an info item. If you are on a boat your national park permit is no longer valid for entry at the baths. You pay like everyone else just twice!

Thanks for the info GeorgeC1. I just don't get it. Are they going to make that much more money by not honoring the permit? And why does the BVI government always want to take advantage of the boaters. Other than the off-shore banking, the boaters bring in a lot of revenue. Sort of like biting the hand that feeds you.

From my understanding they are making people who come in by dinghy or who swim in, walk to the top and pay.

The above is correct. They have made the baths one way.

I don’t normally carry money or credit cards with me when I swim to the Baths. Probably won’t have enough energy for the climb. What are they going to do?
