Hi GG,
Great advice! I am leaning towards the Baths and the Caves for sure. You are right, there probably will be a next time!
Thanks again!
Jo

Hi hoosierdaddy!
Thanks again! From your photos, I have noted that the Caves are on Norman Island. Looks like a place the kids would love to explore!
Take care,
Jo

Hi Connie and LandLockedBeachLover,
I checked the Born To Rhumb website, and unless we are able to get another family to go with us, it looks to costs quite a bit more than Lion In Da Sun.
Still doing a bit more research.
Thanks again,
Jo

Thanks Sun4MySoul, I had came across this villa on VRBO while searching for a family friendly villa. This villa does look wonderful, too bad it doesn't have interior access to bedrooms for those of us traveling with young kids. I can't wait for reviews on it, I am keeping it in mind for future trips...

Hi all...thank you and Happy Halloween!!! LandLockedBeachLover sounds like a great trip to Jost for kids besides the Baths. I had read about Born to Rhumb but wasn't sure how family friendly it was, seems like it was a good time for your kids, now I will add them to my list to call! I have also read...

Hi hoosierdaddy,
Thanks...what a great trip report and photos! I will add Lion in Da Sun to my list. It sure sounds like it was a nice trip for a family to take and a full day of fun! Also going keep the food spots in mind!
Thanks again!

Hi everyone! I am now thinking about a day trip for our family of 4 this summer...kids ages 10 & 13. I know we want to go to the Baths and we would love to do some off island snorkeling. Are they any must-see spots for kids? Any suggestions on what companys may be best suited for families with k...

Thanks for the great photos! We hope to see many turtles and sting rays when we visit for the first time this summer...hoping not to see any sharks!!! I don't know if I would be able to tell a nurse or reef shark apart from another type...just know I would be out of the water fast!!! Enjoy your vaca...

Pia,
I forgot...just kidding about the photos...Please keep sending them. I love the beach photos and can't wait to be on one of them!
All the best,
Jo

Thanks Pia!
Con...maybe won't have the beaches to ourselves.
Pro...maybe we will make some new friends, meet some other forumites and our kids may have other kids to hang out with besides Mom & Dad!
Take care!
Jo

Hi Pia,
Stop teasing me with the beautiful beach photos!!!
Can you tell me from past years, will there be a lot of people at the beach during Carnival week or do the crowds hang out at the Carnival in Cruz Bay mostly?
Thanks,
Jo

Thanks Diana2 & Pia!
I will visit Trunk Bay; not Truck Bay!
Just gotta love those typos!
I am loving all the photos!
Jo

Hi Tina,
WOW, what is that overlooking in your first photo? I love both photos but especially that one!
Can't wait until our vacation this summer...I hope I will be able to post photos like this!
Thanks,
Jo

Hi Sunny, I hope you have a wonderful vacation! FYI if you have not already purchased your airline tickets...Delta's flights have gone up since last week. We switch flights in Atlanta before heading over this summer. I am not sure about your airline options but just wanted you to be aware of this! T...

Ruth, I loved reading your story. Our family is planning our first trip to STJ this summer and from reading these posts, I know I want to visit The St. John Spice Company! Best wishes for continued success and happiness in Paradise! Jo
