A Day at the Beach


There's nothing like a day at the beach, especially, when you take a boat to get there.  We spent the day with our good friends Pat and Janet walking the beach, picking up treasures and picnicking.  There were a few people but mostly we were fortunate enough to be alone to catch up on our latest adventures.  The boating was spectacular and, as always, Charlotte  Harbor was full of dolphins.   Great day on the water!

New Book Coming Soon! Paradise for a Day: St. Thomas A Cruise Ship Passengers Guide to Beaches and Snorkeling

The beginning of November 2016, we set sail on the Norwegian Escape.  For two weeks prior to sailing we prepared for our trip by reading blogs, book and generally searching the internet for information on beaches in St. Thomas.  We thought we had the right beach.  But after we got there we knew it wasn’t the right one.  We wanted to snorkel and relax for a couple of hours on the beach without huge crowds.  Well the snorkeling was good, but the beach was CROWDED.  After some investigation we thought what if we researched all the beaches on St. Thomas, visited them, and then wrote about them in a book.   Interestingly we found out that the beaches recommended to us were not the best beaches in St. Thomas for us.  We hope that this information will help others as well.  Coming Soon!
