I get at least a cigarette packs worth of sea glass every trip, but I'm always on south/east beaches. Kiddle Bay was by far my best provider of sea glass, Little Lameshur next best. When Crabby's still rented dinghys I had a great harvest off the little beaches within Hurricane Hole near the mangrov...

tough to tell but it looks like it may be a tracking device, like someone tagged the shark.

Kiddel Bay is great to shore dive from. My husband and I did it several yrs in a row for several reason. 1. We stayed at a villa right up the hill from the bay. 2. I tend to get sea-sick on a boat. 3. You can pull your jeep very close to the water to unload gear but pull the jeep back up to park, do...

loria,
i tried that already, trying to find pics of what I want is like looking for the needle in the haystack. Can't really narrow the search. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Got pics of Cinnamon Bay cottages and campground?

So I have a week booked at cottages #10 for 4 nights and cottage 9 for 3 nights. Been to STJ 5 yrs in a row and never went to Cinn. Bay. Really looking forward to the new island experience (we always stayed in a villa previously, but we're avid campers at home in the NY through VT area)! Anyone got ...

General Store at Cinnamon Bay

Does anyone have any info or opinions about the general store at Cinnamon Bay Camp Ground. Are their prices and selections of goods and food decent or should I plan at stocking up at Starfish? The list of items they have on their website seem to be more than enough but is the quality decent and they...

having "relations" isn't an issue i'm worried about. We've had "relations" on several STJ beaches throughout our stays there, when there's a will there's a way :wink: . The tent I'd reserve is the most seclued on the eastern end. I'm refering to one of their platform canvas tents...

Villa vs. Cinnamon Bay tent

just looking for some input here,,,, We've (me and husband) been to STJ for a week or 2 in Feb. of 2004 thru 2008. With the exception of our first year there we've always rented a secluded villa with a pool. Due to the economy we haven't gone the past 2 Febs.(that's when our anniversary is). I'm goi...

budman,
visual privacy had more to do with the construction workers in the area. Neighbors, traffic were too close for audio privacy. If it's not my music I'm listening to I prefer to here only ocean and or wildlife. Little too much comotion up on that hill for me.

stayed there in Feb of 2006. Pool deck got sun but the pool didn't. Water was frigid,,, wouldn't even put my toes in the pool. Views were amazing espcially for the full moon. Constant wind was an issue, couldn't keep the candles lit unless we kept the doors closed. Ask about contruction on the road....
