Re: Never been to St. John and need advice

I have been researching and have taken everyone's advice and have decided to try "something new". The family member who is taking us next year loves Coral Bay area, North Shore beaches, Cinnamon Bay and those close by so we are moving from Great cruz bay and moving to a different area. We ...
