car barge
depends on what you want to do or how much you want to spend. Do you just want to hang around Cruz Bay and shop/eat/look around? Do you want to go to maybe one or two beaches then have a nice dinner after? Do you want to sleep in later and stay later? Are you wanting a taste of St. John night life (not that there is much and the last people ferry is at 11)? If you answer yes to these questions- then just take the people ferry over and enjoy your day.
How many are in your group? If there is just a couple than factor in the cost of the car barge. It will cost you $50 round trip on the car barge and you can get a lot of taxi rides for two people to the beach for that. But, if you have a group of 4 or more than the car barge will save you money.
If you want to really tour the island than you need a car. If you are worried about not having enough time- consider renting a car for the day on St. John. Friends of mine rented for just one day- they came early and saw lots of the island. They dropped the car off in town and stayed for a great dinner and a taste of the night life. It was the best of both worlds.
Enjoy!
