I'm thinking about going to St. Thomas. Anyone ever been? |
Travel Info I'm thinking about going to St. Thomas. Anyone ever been? Travel Tips Yes; you should go to all three islands ! http://www.usvitourism.vi/en/stthomas/st... Others Wonderful place, it was one of the stops on our cruise. Yes, been there TONS of times! You'll love it but take the water taxi to St. John. It's beautiful there and much less hectic than St. Thomas and St. Maarten. I have been! Nice place. Nice people. St. Thomas is a lot of fun, I lived there for almost 3 years - go to Coki beach its a blast... tell the locals that Shaz sent you. Yes, many times. I love it as well as St. John and St. Croix. St. Croix is my favorite because it has more to see and is a quieter, less touristy place. St. Thomas has lots of shopping, restaurants and a huge port for cruise boats. There is lots of traffic and it is noisier. St. John is lovely and has some very nice shops and restaurants. Of course, all three have some of the most beautiful beaches you will ever see. It's easy to travel between the islands by ferry. You can also go between St. Thomas and St. Croix by seaplane. Have fun! We were just there last week for the 1st time - WE WILL RETURN! If you love the beach, sun, & good drinks, this is the place to visit! St. Thomas is very busy - lots of people, cruise ship port (so on those days, it's crazy busy), lots of shopping. Coki Beach was beautiful (once you actually get to the beach - you have to go through a pretty rough area to get there - we recommend having a taxi drop you off, parking is horrible). Personally, I wasn't impressed because of the "neighborhood" that surronds it. Magens Bay was much cleaner, isolated, and the surrondings were great - it's in a national park - so you have to pay a fee (I think it was $4). Sapphire Beach was wonderful! great views and snorkeling, and it's free. good parking, nice area. St. John was my fave. Very laid back, most of the island is a US National Park - so it's very well maintained. Great downtown area, lots of quaint shops, & good restaurants. Trunk Bay and Cinnamon Bay are AWESOME! Great views, snorkeling (there's an underwater trail to follow!) All I can say is, WOW! |
