Thank you for posting the beautiful photos. We arrive on Saturday and I can't help but be nervous about the current weather forecasts. I'm happy to see that the day can still turn out beautiful.

Uh oh.. We arrive in exactly 7 days... I've been watching the weather and hoping it will clear out before we get there. Didn't think about all the extra bugs, though... For those of you that have purchased the West Indies bug spray on the island, where did you find it? I'd say we definitely need to ...

We're staying at Casa Luna in less than 2 weeks on the Coral Bay side. Never stayed there before, but I'm super excited about it. I'll post a report once we return.

Thank you so much for looking into this for me! The more I think about it, I should probably just pack what I can and buy the rest there...

PostNet

Has anyone ever shipped a box to PostNet to pick up on arrival? I called to ask for details on how to address the box, but I'm embarrassed to say I had a hard time understanding the person I spoke with. Does anyone know?

Suzanne, we loved getting married at Hawksnest. It was a morning wedding and we had the beach to ourselves. We picked the spot next to the rocks on the right side of the beach (if you're looking at the water). I loved the contrast between the white sandy beaches and the dark rocks. Here's a link to ...

I carried mine on the plane in the garment bag - granted it was 5 years ago. A flight attendent took it and hung it in a closet - no problem at all. There was even another lady on the plane that had a dress too. I was so nervous about it, but it really wasn't a big deal. I'm sure it still wouldn't b...

Trail Bandit Map question

Hi! I was looking at the Trail Bandit map online and noticed that different trails are color coded differently and that there are some other symbols on the map that I'm not seeing a Map Key for. For example, I see that the numbers cirlced in yellow are explained on the back of the map. However, I do...

Restaurant list

I've noticed a lot of different names of restaurants mentioned in different trip reports. It seems like there are more restaurants on St. John that I thought. Does anyone know of a website that lists all of them? I see that the dining guide here only lists a few. We'll be visiting in May and would l...
