Hello, VI Now,
The following site shows aerial photos of the VI: www.skypic.com/virgin.htm. They are in small "thumbnail" format but features are recognizable. The full-size copies must be very interesting but they are not cheap.

Interesting, but I honestly couldn't tell what I was looking at? Can't be St.Croix and St.Thomas...they're not that close together? Maybe from way up there they are????? Any help on what I'm seeing?

Paul:

You didn't scroll down. 🙂

There are over 200 photos on that page, which covers ALL of the major Virgin Islands, both USVI and BVI, in alphabetical order. The first one is a general VI panorama, looking from Peter Island in the foreground toward St. John and Tortola.

Take care,

SailAway

Here's another link to some satellite photos: http://biogeo.nos.noaa.gov/products/data/photos/usvi.shtml. The files are big but can be zoomed in to. Click on a blue dot to take you to a particular section of the island.
