Hi, i am going to st. thomas by myself and was wondering where the hot spots are and any good recomendations. Im sure i'll have fun no matter what happens, im 25 and need a crazy adventure! Any climbing out there????
Hot spots? Well, for a 25 year old lady, I'd think the beach would be a hot spot for the day time. Definitely go to Magens one day, Coki another and Sapphire on a Sunday. Tuesday are always happenin' at the Greenhouse at night. Wednesday night, go up to Paradise Point for the Sunset, then head out to Duffy's Love Shack on the East End. Definitely save a day for STJ. Bring your passport and do a BVI trip like New Horizons II or Captain Nautica. Since you are a lady, you might want to do some shopping, as well. Great snorkeling, SCUBA (even if you've never done it, you can do a resort course in an hour and then go out for the real thing), parasailing, waverunners, windsurfing, parasailing...oh, the list just goes on and on! A good thing to do might be to meet up with some locals or other vacationers at the beginning of your vacation and make some friends to hang out with. I know the fellas that work on the BOB boat (www.bobusvi.com) are always up for showing visitors around on their days off. You might want to schedule a trip on that boat on one of your first days to meet one of those guys (they're all about your age and single...my wife runs the company, so if you wanna go, e-mail me and I'll get you a reservation..avoid booking on the website), or schedule a half-day sail from that leaves the cruise ship dock and hook up with one of the mates on one of those, or one of the guys on a parasailing boat. (gee, kinda sounds like I'm trying to pimp you out, doesn't it? NOT my intention! Haha!).
Where are you staying? That might give us a better idea of recommendations, as well. And when are you coming?
Lots of hiking on STJ, but I'm not familiar with any climbing. Doesn't mean there isn't any, just not familiar with any. You're gonna have a blast here!!
