Smoothies were awesome, and yes, we will be back later in the week. We have seen a lot, but we also know that our time here is priceless. We did buy a couple of disposable underwater cameras. I did empty one of them today in fact, just before we got to see the sea turtles :( . Tomorrow will be a lit...

All I pretty much remember from last night was the last place we stopped at, Woody's. Had some shark bites(I highly recomend!!), and a few drinks. Well, we started out early this morning and headed to Hawksnest Bay. This was our first snorkle excursion. It was unbelievable!! We saw so many different...

I am now officially hooked on Rum cream. I have been drinking it over ice with a splash of sprite. I'm going to have to bring some home with us, not sure that I have ever seen it in our local liquor store.

Our villa is Bombalassy. It's beautiful!! Pink Conch is also right next to us, just a little bit higher on the cliff. Curtis, the owner, has been very helpful and is very nice. Obviously I was joking when saying the boat was my new toy, I only wish!! We spent the day exploring around the island in t...

I hope this works. We are trying to upload photos each day to this album. Hope you all enjoy.

Well, we finally made it!!! Arrived at our villa around 4pm after leaving the night before from Portland, OR at 10:30pm. It's been a long day but it's been far more than we expected. Thanks again to everyone and their helpful insite to help make this trip easier on us!! For now, it's off to pick up ...

okay, it's finally here. we leave tomorrow night for STJ!! any last minute advice from everyone for newbies other than to just have a great time?

So for the gathering on 8/3 is it. Was anything decided for the members? My husband and I are the newbies coming. And if we can make it to BB I would like to know the code or attire.We can't wait to come. What about if the first person there just makes a little sign and puts it on their table or clo...

My husband and I will be on The island from August 2-the 9th is the gathering to meet newbies on the fourum also or just for people who have been going to the island awhile. It would be fun for us to come and meet some of you. And maybe get some insider info. of the island. We love the forum so far ...

Wow, we love this forum!! Everyone is so helpful and the responses are very prompt. Looks like we will go to Maho first to figure things out. It sounds like it's best to bring your own mask or what about renting equipment on STJ? I understand that you want it to fit correctly so there isn't any leak...

My wife and I are set to arrive in a couple of weeks. Neither of us have ever snorkled. Where are the best places to snorkle for newbs?

Thank you all for the information. After reading all the replies, we have decided not to go there. You all are such a wealth of knowledge and your opinions are greatly appreciated.

My wife and I are looking at booking a day sail while on our stay at St. John. We are looking for a day trip over to Joist Van Dyke. Please tell us about your experiences.

I was wondering if anyone has been to the Dolphin Discovery on Tortola? We were thinking about heading there for a day to swim with the dolphins. Is it worth taking part in? Also, how long does it take to get there from St. John? Thanks
