Nestled on the northeastern coast of Jost Van Dyke in the British Virgin Islands, the Bubbly Pool is a geological delight. This natural jacuzzi is formed as waves roll through a crevasse in the boulders that line the coast. The wave action and rougher surf create the perfect conditions for this hidden site, where the pounding surf converges in a warm, effervescent pool. To reach the Bubbly Pool, visitors embark on a scenic hike from Foxy's Taboo Restaurant. The trail is well-marked and takes you through beautiful landscapes, adding an element of adventure to your visit. Be cautious of the Manchineel tree along the path; its fruits and bark are poisonous. The tides dictate the state of the pool, which is at its bubbliest during high tide.
