Thanks for all the great suggestions. We are packing light. Carry-on only. We also love the ferry rides, so no biggie there. I will need to check on Anegada closings during September. Most of our trips our in September for the very reasons mentioned. We love feeling like we have the Island to oursel...

Hey everyone, My wife and I are going to shake up our usual trip in September to include a couple other Islands. We will be flying in and out of STT. We will be in the area for 12 nights. What would be your suggestions on our itinerary? Since we get in at 3:30 pm, we can either go on to STJ first or...

I think they are called "Peacock Flounder"

I have been keeping track of this thread with much interest. This incident will not keep me from visiting St. John, but it really makes me think. What would I do if someone did that to my family? Of course I would never provoke someone to wave a gun at me, but many times it's an innocent bystander w...

I would recommend a flotation vest. I bought one for my wife from www.leisurepro.com The vest can be inflated to whaterever level of flotation assistance you need. The belt didn't seem to provide the same level of "security blanket" feeling for my wife as the belt. :) My wife slowly let ai...

We use the US Air card and have enough points to fly to STT free at least once a year. They are the cheapest out of our local airports. However, it doesn't really matter what the normal ticket price is since the points required for a flight are the same no matter what airport we fly out of on US Air...

I really can't tell much difference. They look almost identical except for the colors available and the Shedders appear to have a "leash" system on them. It is probably designed more for boarding and may use a stiffer material. We are going with the Treks since they are the same price and ...

We are going to the U.S. Divers short fins also now that we are going to carry-on only. You can find those fins for about $35 on several websites. There are at least 2 styles that work well for travel. The ones listed on the NG site are the Shredders. The U.S. Divers Treks also work well for travel.

On your last full day on the Island and all you can think about is: "Would we have enough money to move here if we sell everything we have back home?!"

This may seem too simple, but have you tried amazon.com? If you know what you are looking for they will list all the available stores and prices. Most of the stores have been rated by previous customers and you can choose a store with a high rating.

No problem. I'll try to answer any questions you have.

I couldn't find any good reviews for this villa while I was planning our trip, so here is the first! The villa is fairly new and everything is in great condition. The AC works fine in the bedrooms and cools them quickly in the evenings. There was a breeze, but I don't think we would have been able t...

Obviously, VayCay had not read your TR yet before that question was posed...do you recommend the rib eye?

Shipwreck!!!

Hey Everyone, Here is a review of our most recent trip to St. John. I will go over the basic day by day details and then make a few observations at the end. This turned out long, so thanks for your patience. Travel Day: May 13 We decided to leave out of RDU instead of our local airport due to much b...
