The ocean life and great access/visibility to enjoy it.
And the St. John vibe.

Bliss.
lark22-
AWESOME.
I love hearing the same kind of stones stirring on the west end of Maho,too. The subtle "shush" of the tranquil surf rustling in, and the tide pulling the water back through the stones there is what made me fall in love with that little beach...It's the most soothing symphony that I could ever imagine!
So groovy that this post was resurrected & bumped up!

The way my mind quits racing as I snorkel in the warm, turquoise water.
This thread made me cry as I remembered the peace I felt as I rode over on the ferry for the first time just weeks after my mom died. Only a magical place can make me feel so good at such a terrible time.
Sadly, I am tickerless

One of my favorite things about STJ is meeting people I know from the forum. So far I've met:
mindehankins
Pia
Gromit
LazyLane
BillVT
The forum takes on new meaning when your "friends" post something.

The stunning combination of turquoise water, lush green mountains and soft white sand that continues to captivate me every time I visit.

Being so relaxed that I can be completely and totally entertained for hours watching a bunch of bananaquits devour a coconut shell full of sugar. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. Bliss.

My favorite memory of STJ is one early morning at Francis and the only voices I heard were my 3 boys laughing and giggling... Priceless!!
My favorite ONE THING to do is RELAX from the stresses of everyday life and ENJOY my family on the most beautiful place on earth!!
