Welcome to the forum Kulbrezn!! Don't know too much about surfing in the VI - haven't heard to much about it and really not sure where there would be surfing unless you were towed out or dropped out. I do know that there are decent places to surf in Tortola (BVI) however. In fact they hold a surfing camp there every year and I believe the Malibu Longboard Competition I believe put on by HIHO (the wedding planner I used last year told me that her children surf in these competitions) - supposedly off of Cane Garden Bay...when I was there however, it was as calm as could be. Check out: http://magicseaweed.com/Cane-Garden-Bay ... eport/480/
As for getting vehicles between STT and STJ - No worries mon - there is a car ferry that runs out of Red Hook - I personally have never used it, however, there are plenty of good peeps here that will, I am sure, be glad to give you some info.
Good luck and have fun!

Doubtful that any beach in STJ would have a decent break, unless a tropical system in nearby. Shoreline on STJ drops off quickly.
On some of Tortola's north shore beachs (eg. Long & Apple Bays), the dropoff if more gradual. We brought boogie boards with us the last time we were in Tortola, and put them to good use on Long Bay. Surfers frequent the area around Bomba's.
