Re: New sunscreen info film
We leave for St. John on Thursday and you have me searching in my packed bag to check my sun screen. Unless the oxybenzone has different names, my "NO-AD" sunscreen does not have that ingredient listed on the label. We understand the importance of protecting the reefs. But no sunscreen isn...

Re: Four Bed with view of St. Thomas
Thanks for the advise. Looks like Aurora is the winner. I planned a trip to St. John for a group of 11 three years ago, so 8 should be a piece of cake! Hah! Couple of things I learned with a large group... 1.) I had koozies made for the trip and put names on them to help keep track of drinks. Also f...

Four Bed with view of St. Thomas
Hello Everyone! I have the "wonderful" assignment of finding a villa for 8 people. All of course have their own wish list and trying to satisfy it, while not impossible it has become trying. I need four bedrooms, pool, closer to town than Virgin Grand Estates, with a view of St. Thomas, in...

Trip Report
Hello everyone and thanks to all that make planning a trip easier by sharing your knowledge. We returned from St. John on Saturday. This was our fifth trip but our first trip during high season. I was afraid it would be insane but was pleasantly surprised. Yes, it is much busier in January than Octo...

On island with large group
just sitting here looking out over Fish Bay enjoying the first cup of coffee. This is our first time traveling with a group of 11. Thought I would pass along the best idea to keep all those with you organized. We bought can huggies and added individual names to them. Also found clear, platstic stick...

2muchsnow....we understand the wet trip. We were there 2 years ago when it rained forever! Roads were washed out, school closed...but like you, we still had fun. This years trip was much drier so we had a chance to try more things and we did the mangrove snorkel at Princess Bay. It is a lot of fun. ...

This is the reason we never made it out to dinner this past week. How can you pass up the view!? http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc396/klikesfins/th_aDSCN1394.jpg http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc396/klikesfins/th_aDSCN1422.jpg http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc396/klikesfins/th_aDSCN14...

Maho Beach
http://i1209.photobucket.com/albums/cc396/klikesfins/th_aDSCN1441.jpg First time at Maho.

The clearing you see around the objects is the...

Dinghy day
soooo....... Dinghy day. We rented from Noah's little arks. We were there at 9am and picked up our mighty vessel. Headed out to sea..... Stopped at honeymoon bay just to see how easy it was to beach the boat.... Very easy. Walked the shore a bit and saw a baby nurse shark cruising the shallows. Cool...

Mangrove Snorkel
Went to Princess Bay yesterday to check out the mangroves. I wasn't too sure about the whole idea. Sounded a bit mucky to me, but surprise! I really enjoyed. Truly is a huge nursery for all kinds of fish and not mucky at all. When the sun was shining, it looked like someone's aquarium. There were ab...

Villa suggestions for a group of 12?
We are on island right now and part of our time has been spent looking at larger villas for a group to come back in early June. Want to stay in the area somewhere between great Cruz bay and Ditlift point. Price range around $7000/week. We looked at Great Expectations and are going to look at Panache...

Monday on the island
i so want to break out in a few lines from Jimmy Buffett's Coconut Telegraph. But all the lines aren't dead and there is always some kind of juicy news. Maho was a bit quieter yesterday. There will still a few tarpon and rays hanging out, but fewer bait fish. I think they have thinned the "herd...
