Full day, hands down. We always head all the way out to Waterlemon, snorkle, have lunch and then slowly make our way back, stopping at whatever beaches/snorkle spots capture our fancy. A half day (we did that once) isn't enough time to really enjoy the trip. Have an awesome time!

Hu, Allicat, First of all, congratulations! My husband and I were married on STJ 10 years ago, and cannot imagine a more beautiful and special place for exchanging vows. We were married by AnneMarie Porter (incredible woman) and our photos were shot by Constance Wallace, who did a fabulous job. She ...

My husband and I save special bottles of wine for our trips, and purchased a special wine carton with foam inserts and a canvas cover, with handles and lock, to check with our luggage. It has worked beautifully for 3 trips to STJ. I checked the International Wine Accessory (IWA) website, which was w...

Happy New Year, Anthony, and have a wonderful trip. To parrot the others, this forum is helpful and fun...and you continue to improve its functionality with each passing day. A terrific service. Many thanks.

Sorry, Ron. Hope you get better soon!!

Hi, all...I just returned from STJ and didn't hear or meet anyone with the flu during the past 10 days. I did, however, feel a little cold coming on around 3 days into the trip. It must have been jet lag (or perhaps a Painkiller hangover!!!) because it vanished the next day. To answer Ruth's questio...

LOVE the report, Mary Beth! I'm proud of you for driving...that's something I haven't yet done on previous STJ trips. Maybe this time? The food porn is especially great. Thank you!!

The many Forum-ites who have been to STJ and returned, posting awesome trip reports, have been so inspirational. Thank you. I am incredibly stressed by work (I'm a business-owner, and of course, everything is going crazy now...as it always does prior to vacation) and am living for the moment that we...

Can't wait for your trip report, Mary Beth! Sorry about the travel hassles...

Thanks for another terrific installation! Regarding your comments about getting married on a STJ beach, it's not too late for you and Mr. Flop! My hubby and I were married 10 years ago at sunset on Trunk Bay (yes, sounds insane, but we were alone save for a handful or snorklers who watched from afar...

Absolutely terrific trip reports, Flip-Flop...Thank you for sharing. You have a unique and personal style of writing really draws the reader in. And the pix are equally as wonderful. I feel like I know you! Since I'm heading to STJ in a few days (wishing it was tomorrow), your up-to-date info is muc...

This is way cool! Love it. Looks like you had a wonderful time.

Thanks, Pia. Sorry for the delay in responding but just discovered your additional info. Lobster, here we come!

YAY, Mary Beth! Looking forward to hearing about your on-island adventures. Enjoy!!

Looks like you ladies had a wonderful time. Fun pix (that tarpon is scary!) Thanks for sharing. I'm counting down the days and hours now...
