Bath Fountain Hot Springs

Mineral Springs · St. Thomas

Rating: 4.4 / 5

The Bath Fountain hot mineral springs in St Thomas have been drawing bathers since the spring was discovered in 1699 by an escaped slave who is said to have found relief from his wounds in its waters. A small government-operated bathhouse sits on the site alongside the old Bath Fountain Hotel, offering private soaking tubs fed by the natural hot mineral water that is locally credited with easing arthritis, rheumatism and skin conditions. The setting is rural and modest; the water temperature and mineral content are the attraction.
