Thanks RickG, I will check them out.

Will be in SJ for 2 weeks starting 3/22 and am hoping to take some basic sailing lessons. Any recommendations????

This past Saturday we took the 10:00AM to Red Hook and walked through the last security check point at 11:45AM. This was for a 2:56PM departure. This may sound too early but the Customs line had probably quadrupled during the time we first got in line. The 11:00AM to Red Hook probably would have wor...

Thanks for the suggestions!!!! Only 16 more days!

Will be in St John starting 3/27 and want to book a sail to JVD. Have done this many times with the Charter from the Westin but would like to spend more time at White Bay and don't necessarily need all the frills that come with that. Any recommendations on Day Sail Captains?????

Happy TGIF from the ice box known as Chicago. I'll be walking on this beach in 12 days!

Thanks for the input. We have booked the entire trip using a combination of this advice plus added some of our own spin. I will post a trip report when we return. I know this is VI Forum but we all need another place now and then. This will have to work until we return to SJ in March for our 8th con...

My wife and I are planning a trip to Key West for early December. Need help with a place stay for a week. We would like a great place on the beach and close to night life. Help!

Have been owners at the VG Estates the last 7 years. They do not have coolers or beach chairs for personal use. You can use pool towels to take to the beach. I beleive there is a place in CB where you can rent chairs. Take a backpack cooler with you.

I agree with Anthony's advice. But if you do it:
shoes and socks and take plenty of water. The fall in elevation happens in the first 1/2 mile which means the climb back up is the last 1/2 mile. It is a great hike-done it twice. Good luck!!!

I've been playin it pretty cool but after watchin the Travel Channel last nite I'am stoked!!!! 3 days sailing the BVI's then 7 days on St john. I pitty the people that have to put up with me the next 3 days.

Try the Embassy Suites at Isle Verde. Short taxi trip to airport. Very good facilities with breakfast and Mgr's cocktail party included in room rate. Short walk to beach. $20 taxi inc. tip to Old San Juan. Stayed 1 to 2 nites each of the last 3 years and enjoyed it very much!!

Check out the Treazzure and Capt. Hollywood Joe & Danielle at Sailingvirginislands.com . Went with them last year and had a great time!! Booked them for 2 days/nites in March. 43 days to go!!

Thank you for your response.

Does anybody have a recommendation for a photographer to do a family portrait on St. John??
