Big4, I didn't go directly from a ship, so I cna't answer that. But Virgin Gorda is not a big island. It's hard to imagine the trip being very long. I'm remembering 20 minutes from a hotel near the north of the island, but I cant' say for sure.

There is no snorkeling. The water never got above waist deep (I'm 5'4") when I was there. It's just exploring the different "chambers" formed by the boulder, some said to be as big as a house. It's also much cooler inside, because of the shade and the water, and that is a welcome break from the heat outside.
