We daysailed to Jost on Breath out of Coral Bay. Long day but the height of our vacation. We were out ten hours and enjoyed every one of them. Foxy...
Forgot to add, the water clarity and color is similar in both places. The most beautiful water I've ever seen, though, is southeast of Jost Van Dyke ...
I think you can find nice people anywhere --- as long as your heart and mind are open to them. T&C and STJ are very different scenery-wise. T&C ...
We went to STJ in May for two weeks and used Starfish in Cruz Bay, Love City Mini-Mart and Lily's in Coral Bay. Planning on doubling your food bill (...
There is a customs office on Jost --- just down the beach to the west of Foxy's. Ask anyone around the pier for directions.
Happy wedding and happy life together! How about Maho Bay? What a beautiful place...soft white sand, mountains on either side, beautiful crystal...
Sorry to be so plebian but we couldn't see spending a small fortune for water/hiking shoes. Happened on some Nike surf and sand shoes at Sam's and de...
Lily's is across the road from Island Blues in the new mini-mall. They opened while we were there in the last half of May. Very clean and bright. Ni...
You won't be disappointed with Breath. It is a true sailing ship, unlike many of the other "boats" that offer day sails and sunset sails. We took a ...
I don't think I would EVER check a bag without having a carryon, too. Doing so really tempts fate. I've had my luggage "misplaced" by an airline for...
He did. Most 50-something white guys sitting in a Boston whaler with their shirts off look pretty much alike, too ;-D Hope you find him!
We were repeatedly warned away from buying fresh fish while on STJ and noticed that the restaurants did not "advertise" fresh local fish. The reason?...
Paris/Hertz also does NOT allow you to take the top off. We rented a Grand Vitara (which has a hard top no one could remove without the jaws of life)...
Be careful during low season. One of the car barges does not operate (sorry, can't remember which one) on Sunday. Some folks have bought a roundtrip...
We just got back from two weeks in STJ - May 14 - 28. It rained pretty solidly for the first 3 1/2 days and then we got only the occasional morning s...
Wow, I don't know if we would have wanted to carry one more thing on the ferry from Red Hook to Cruz Bay. The checked bag, the carry-on and my purse ...
Just returned from STJ (2 weeks) We considered a Vitara but ending up renting a Grand Vitara. The regular Vitara was very small and, frankly, looked ...
By the way, it's a HOOK bracelet rather than a HOOKER bracelet. Wouldn't want to give anyone the wrong idea about the morality of any woman wearing o...
There are several places in Coral Bay where you can get liquor - Love City Mini-Mart, Cases by the Sea, the new grocery store in the Cocoloba Mall (na...
If you're not looking to bare boat, I would recommend getting in touch with Peter/Dorothy Muilenberg about their sailing vessel "Breath". They are li...
