Over 13 km long and with a population of 2,500, Virgin Gorda is the third-largest of the British Virgin Islands and a popular destination for yachtsmen and nature lovers. Virgin Gorda's greatest attraction (apart from the picturesque island capital of Spanish Town, which has an almost West-Indian feel to it) are the spectacular rock formations the "Natural Baths" - huge blocks of granite that surround the sandy bays in the South-West of the island and which are transformed into natural pools at low tide.
