We were there for Good Friday, I think two years ago. I remember it being "dry" in the afternoon. We tried to bring our beers into one of the restaurants in Coral Bay (I can't remember which one) for lunch, and they asked us not to because the restaurant could get fined.
Oh no is this true?
Our flight arrives around 130pm on Good Friday and I have to admit one of my favorite things to do to unwind and get on island time is to have an ice cold beer. =)
Does this mean the LQ store at the airport will be closed?
From On-StJohn last year:
Good Sober Friday
A very old law means a very sober island. At least until Happy Hour, which seems reasonable. The Virgin Islands marks Good Friday by prohibiting alcohol sales at bars and restaurants from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The law doesn’t apply to retail stores, so if you’ve got bugs crawling all over you and you can’t get past the shakes, pick up a pint at Starfish and sit in the parking lot.
I remembered seeing this last year. We don't get on island until Saturday Night so it doesn't apply to us.
Wow......I have to admit I had a panic moment after reading this thread. How sad is that. It's our last beach day too. But I do feel a bit guilty about partying it up on Good Friday. Maybe I'll get so wasted on Thurs. I won't want anything on Fri.
