St. John ~ An Unspoiled Tropical Paradise
Thursday, March 4th, 2010Beachgoers from around the globe know that St. John is at the top of the list when it comes to phenomenal island locales. The island’s natural beauty is challenged only by the amazing Caribbean sea that surrounds it. Because nearly two thirds of the island is designated as a U.S. National Park, it is one of the most scenic and unspoiled islands in the Caribbean. The weather is beautiful throughout the year, with temperatures hovering in the low 80’s.

Guests who choose to experience the Caribbean in style often recommend one of the amazing St. John vacation rental properties. Many offer unmatched views, private swimming pools, outdoor showers, and more! Whether you choose to be pampered at a luxury resort, or have a whole island villa to yourself, you’re sure to be pleased with your taste of island life. While the rentals do come fully-equipped with kitchens, many guests choose to let someone else handle the meal plans. With over 35 restaurants to choose from, there is no shortage of cuisine to sample.
Outdoor activities are a favorite way to pass the time in the Virgin Islands. Some consider a great book in a hammock as active as they’d like to get, while others opt to try out some of the area’s favorite water sports. Some favorite water activities include scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, kayaking, and fishing. A trip below the surface of the water will show you the island from a whole new perspective! The countless tropical fish swimming around, beautiful coral clusters, and variety of marine life continues to keep both visitors and locals in awe of the beauty of the Caribbean.

Shoppers will enjoy Mongoose Junction, located in Cruz Bay. Offering a variety of goods in a beautifully crafted shopping village, you’re sure to find that perfect item to take home with you at Mongoose Junction!
Be sure to set aside some time to explore some of the many amazing beaches while visiting St. John. Words and photos do the island no justice when trying to explain the unmatched beauty of this island paradise! Be sure to look out for one the wild donkeys that roam the island for a fun diversion from your average beach vacation.

What is your favorite thing about St. John? The beaches? The shopping? The activities? Something we’ve missed?
