  • Spanish Town, Virgin Gorda - The Baths - Roundtrip Spanish Town

    Description

    This is the "Must-see & Do" Yachting Land Adventure on Virgin Gorda, if not in the entire British Virgin Islands. Open-air safari wagons will take you and your fellow SeaDreamers on a short twenty-minute ride through the village of Spanish Town to discover The Baths, an intriguing group of sea caves and unusual rock formations, spectacularly set on an amazing beach. From the parking area follow the winding footpath down to the beach to explore this geological wonder. Wade knee deep through the sea caves formed by mammoth boulders and bask in the shafts of sunlight pouring through the natural ceiling into the pools below. Learn about the boulders' origins and the many curious names given to the rock formations. Swim, relax and enjoy the ambiance of this piece of paradise. Then, retrace your footprints in the sand and ascend the path to the Top of the Baths where you will enjoy a fresh fruit smoothie. There is also time to relax and take a dip in the pool before departing via the safari wagons for the return to your SeaDream yacht.

    Notes

    Please bring swimwear, towel and sunscreen. The portion of the adventure involving actual exploration of the cave area can be considered strenuous to some so set your own pace; do as much or as little as you wish. Guests who prefer to enjoy the beach during this portion of the adventure are welcome to do so. Wear comfortable walking shoes as the footpath to The Baths is uneven and water shoes (not flip flops) in the water. While walking the path through The Baths, your feet will get wet. A backpack will be more convenient than a shoulder bag when walking through The Baths. A minimum participation is required to operate all Yachting Land Adventures, and some may have limited capacity. All adventures in the SeaDream Yachting Land Adventures program are subject to change and their operation may be dependent upon sea conditions. Final departure times will be published on-board.

  • Falmouth Bay - Heli Flight Over Montserrat Volcano

    Description

    You will be met at the tender landing site by your tour guide and driven to the helicopter pad at Fort James in St John’s. After your orientation and safety briefing, here you will board your awaiting private helicopter for a fully narrated and truly memorable and unique Montserrat Volcano tour.
    On this 45-minute, pilot-narrated flight, you will fly to Montserrat to tour its "Exclusion Zone," an area covering 80 sq. kms made off-limits to both ground transportation and habitation. This makes the helicopter the only way to get an up-close look at the Soufriere Hills Volcano.
    The volcano rises to 3,000 feet above sea level and frequently emits a combination of ash, smoke, and steam. Survey the massive Tar River Gorge and Delta found 1,000 feet below, which has formed as a result of pyroclastic flows.
    You will witness what is left of small villages devastated by past eruptions before touring the charred remains of Plymouth, the country’s former capital, now uninhabited and in some places buried under 40 feet of ash.
    On the seaside, observe the former location of the W.H. Bramble Airport - abandoned after the 1997 eruptions. Portions of this airport, including the runway were still visible until the partial dome collapse on 11 February 2010, which buried what was left.
    This SeaDream Yachting Land Adventure (YLA) is operated using Airbus EC130 helicopters, and the spacious cabins can comfortably accommodate the pilot and up to 6 passengers. Their raised, forward-facing, theatre-style seating and absence of partitions that block the view ensure spectacular visibility from every seat.
