Welcome to Tortola

We docked for the day in Tortola on an eastern Caribbean NCL cruise.

We actually went over to another island, Virgin Gorda, for the day to a location called “The Baths” including an area call the Devils Caves, which is really a large rock system complex to walk through. It is not a cave in the traditional concept.

It was a fun day with beautiful weather.  The ferry ride back and forth was also nice with great views.
