Very interesting - the St John link lists "Gibney" beach - I always called it Oppenheimer. One of the most beautiful beaches I have been to on STJ, t...
When I have taken the ferry over with my snorkel bag, I keep it with me. I haven't ever been charged extra for it. If your snorkel bag is large enou...
Stumpy is a good place to find shells - BUT....you need 4 wheel drive to get down the road safely. It is a very secluded beach - which is why I enjoy...

A note about Carnival Night - the food may well be 'West Indian" but according to the locals, the fungi is nowhere near 'right' - but the Kalaloo is (...
