Help - where to buy an underwater camera on island

Post by Gr8Escape »

Can anyone tell me if there is a place to buy cameras on STJ? I am on island now and my camera decided to stop working and I would like to see if I can find anything here. I would settle for a disposable one for now but would really prefer it to be an underwater one.
Thanks for any help you might be able to offer.

Try Chelsea Drug in the Marketplace bldg. and Low Key next to Grande Bay.

Years ago, we bought a disposable one at Crabbys in Coral Bay. Bummer that yours stopped working! Hope you find one. Looking at the Spice Cam this morning, it looks like a beautiful day.

We bought UW cameras at Royal Caribbean on Main St in CA. Give them a call and see if they have any. Boulschands also has had them. Ask if they have them in Havensight also.

We happened to go to Trunk today and we got a disposable underwater one for $21.
I'll try Chelsea drug too. I looked at Low Key yesterday but they did not have underwater ones.
Jim - where are these places you mentioned, I haven't heard or seem any of these?

Thanks JJ - so after we came back today hubby tried my camera and it is back working again, not sure if it will last but between that and my new disposable that I got at Trunk, I may be all set.

Thanks for everyone's help.
