Shimmering beaches, crystal-blue water, secluded coves and pristine rain
forests. St. Thomas offers all this plus renown duty-free shopping, breathtaking beaches, championship golf and nonstop nightlife. Steep hillsides thick with flowers and bright red rooftops make
St Thomas a photographer's delight. Not far from the duty-free shopping are some of the most glorious beaches in the Caribbean. Nearby St John is only 20 minutes away by ferry. A St
Thomas vacation is two islands in one.
Spend a day at the world famed underwater trail for snorkelers. St John is a nature lover's dream with
over half of the island covered by a national park. Purchased from Denmark in 1917 the United States
bought a bit of paradise in the Caribbean. The climate and beaches are superb and almost everything is
duty free. Imports from all over the world often can be bought at a fraction of their cost. You'll enjoy
shopping where the notorious pirate Blackbeard once stored his loot. Rumor has it that some of his
treasure is still buried on the island. Yachting enthusiasts can rent sailboats or powerboats with ou without captain.
St. Thomas boasts one of the largest charter fleets in the Caribbean. Cruzan Rum, the Love Bush, (an
indigenous plant on which couples carve their initials) and the banana daiquiri ( invented in St. Thomas)
all contribute a sense of what the natives call limin...groovin', layin' back, relaxing and enjoying the day. Come see why they had to invent a word just to describe a St. Thomas vacation. |
