private taxi
We have used both private and regular taxi on our trips to St john. Our first trip we used Christopher and he was excellent. We were traveling with 3 other couples. The second trip, we used him again and did private water taxi. That was before they built the new ferry terminal and it was a breeze, h...

The owners of the place we are staying told us the water is the coolest it has been in a long time. We always come in Jan and have never been cold before and this trip we cut way back on the snorkeling b/c of the water temp and the cool wind. It's still wonderful compared to NE, but too cool to snor...

I debated bringing one of mine, but decided against it. I have a couple of rashguards with me for sun protection, but haven't needed one yet. I think the water has been a little cooler this trip, but I have only been staying in about an hour each time. Normally we are in for 4 + hours per day. If yo...

rashguard
A rashguard will protect you from the sun, but not really keep you warm. Get something that has neoprene, even 1mm will help. I teach swimming and I am in the water about 8 hours a day. I use a neoprene long sleeve top when I am cold. Also, I will wear a fleece workout top underneath to trap the war...

Honeymoon Cottage
My daughter got married last june and she and her husband stayed at Honeymoon Cottage, Francis Bay. They had a wonderful time. She doesn't like the steep, curvy roads, so this was rather tame in that respect. I think they paid around $1800.

Jan 25th-30th
My husband and I are trying to plan a last minute trip the 25th through 30th (of January) on St John. We have stayed in Coral Bay, Chocolate Hole and Catherineburg. Are looking for something $250 or less a night. Does anyone know of any specials out there? Thanks ahead of time!

Olympus tough series
We just returned from 9 days on St John and used our new Olympus Tough 6020. It took great pics and we had no problems with it at all. It was easier than using my Canon with the underwater housing. I can actually see the screen when shooting underwater. I am going to look at the new 8000 b/c I liked...

Just testing my ticker
Just trying out my new ticker, just figured out how to do this. Can't wait to get there. We have rented St John Livin for our trip. Have stayed in Chocolate Hole and Catherineburg and wanted to try Coral Bay.
