Tortola, St. John/ St. Thomas Adventures

No we went through Patouche Charters. One of the big issues with DCL Port Adventures to the Baths is the min age of 8. That's why we looked elsewhere. We had no issues helping the little kids in last year but we aren't doing the baby until May. I don't think it will be an issue. I'll hold him and swim in with help from a flotation device. The sport ergo will be for hiking through the rocks. I could see it being too much for some families but my kids are adventurous and my wife and I are in decent shape to help them through. There was really nothing that felt too much for us last year.

I reviewed the Patouche website, they list the baths as a full day. Our time in Tortola is 7am - 2pm. Was your time in Tortola longer?

I didn't realize there was a min age for the baths. That's a bummer -- my son is 5 maybe we will have to look elsewhere too.

How do you know how long the ship will be in port?

Yes we were there till 5. It's probably worth emailing them to see if they accommodate a shorter stay.
