USVI-On-Line

We are coming down in a month and we are getting our jeep on St Thomas (first time for us)...When we get to Red Hook do we go in and get our car barge ticket and more importantly can we take an island beverage on the barge with us?

No, you will first pay the nice lady at the port office (you will drive right up to the window) your port fee to enter the loading area ($4 for jeeps). You'll then back up into the lanes and wait for the barge. Once it arrives you'll back on and pay the person on the barge when the make it to your car ($30 one way, $50 round trip). Yes you can take anything and everything onto the barge in your vehicle!

GREAT! Thanks for the info!! Since this is our first time the first hurdle will be driving from the airport to the ferry - by then I will probably need a drink! That is the only part I am nervous about...BUT we will make it I'm sure!

There is a little bar in the YELLOW building beside where you will be parked awaiting the car barge. Usually they are open and you can go get a frosty, cold beverage if you desire.

Just a little info, I came home yesterday Nov 1st. There were 2 Barges running.
