What do you guys think of the Limnos to Virgin Gorda The Baths? Have you guys used them in the past? I would like to hear all the positive and the so not positive remarks. Their price sounds great but how is their fleet? Is it run down is it nice, dirty, clean etc...

Anything you guys know about them i would like to hear.

We took the Limnos several years ago on this same excursion. It all depends on what you like. The Limnos is comfortable, has unlimited "beverages" which can be a good or bad thing. The stops were great, I really enjoyed the Baths more when we went on the Limnos than the NH II only because we docked, took a bus and entered the Baths from the top and hiked down to the Baths. On the NH II we swam to the Baths from the boat and really didn't have a chance to go up to the top where the bar and shops were - it is a great photo op from the top, around the pool. They will let you use the pool if you buy a drink (not a problem) There were a lot of young people on the Limnos (early 20's) who started drinking before the engines got going, alhtough they weren't disruptive at all and stayed on the top level getting plastered and sunburned, I guess because I have kids almost that age, I just worried about them when they jumped in the water to snorkel, etc. - they were so drunk! Sorry, I've gotten off track...Also, the Limnos carries a lot more people than others like the New Horizon II, Breath, etc.. It really just depends on what you like and are looking for - when we go again it will be on the New Horizon or comparable, but that is just what we like. I hope this helps 🙂

My group has taken the Limnos to Virgin Gorda and The Baths the past two years and will do so again early November. They have a wonderful crew and make the trip memorable. Last year, the boat did have a problem, but we anchored off St. John, waiting for another boat, which took about 1/2 hour. The crew made it worthwhile, however, being able to snorkel where we anchored and added another hour to our trip overall, with the ok of all the passengers.
