Now I am confused - it has been a couple of years since I was in the BVI, but I don't recall needing to get tickets to go to the Baths. And now we have to purchase tickets online? I am presuming that the need for Tour Reservation form is not required for charter boats - I don't think I am a ship's agent. Did they manage to come up with yet a new fee - within the marine conservation permit payment system?

I tried to attach a copy of the statement that the National Parks Trust put on their facebook page, but not sure if it worked.

It is nice to know that they considered all this in advance. Quite frustrating to try and work it all out.

I have always understood that, if you're on a charter boat with an NPT sticker, you have already paid for park entry. Land visitors need to purchase a ticket.

we paid for tickets at the top booth and were on a boat in Leverick and didn't bring my boat park ID. If you come by water they would never know

If you go go to Mad Dogs at the top...great proprietor and his tag is "little place with big content"

For many years there has been "tickets" unless you have a park permit from you charter company (or forget it). There's a gate/booth house at the top and you stop to pay a few dollars. I think they actually did give us a ticket in March.

Now that tourism is picking up, I think they are offering an online option to ensure you get a spot for the day you want. Not sure what the capacity is to keep it COVID safe.

As mentioned, if you're arriving by dinghy no need to do anything because who would know you're there. If you plan to go up one path and down the other, bring your Park Permit so you don't have to pay.
