There’s really no typical day here on Saint Thomas, but a perfect day could consist of exploring the coral reefs from your private yacht, anchored in a secluded bay, while your chef prepares a fresh seafood lunch, followed by what could possibly be one of the THE most scenic rounds of golf you’ll ever play in your life, at the renowned Mahogany Run golf course.
Kids of all ages love the kayak, hiking and snorkeling adventures to be had with Virgin Island Ecotours. It offers fabulous tours around the island in its two-person “sit-on-top” kayaks, which are safe, stable, comfortable and easy to paddle. Their guides are witty and knowledgeable, and kids get to learn about the trees, undergrowth, fish and history of how the ecosystem works in the mangroves.
You’ll find time for afternoon siestas by the pool, before strolling through pastel-painted buildings of the town, while the kids learn to scuba dive, and will beg for one more trip on the Atlantis Submarine.
Take the Skyride to Paradise Point and hike through the lush tropical forests of the Virgin Islands National Park.
Visitors also love Magens Bay beach – quite possibly one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, with safe swimming perfect for the kids – and the streets of Charlotte Amalie never fail to impress with the duty-free shopping.
And you’ll definitely want to play island-style, after dark, when things really heat up; you’ll be dazzled by the scintillating array of events from arts, theater, live music, casino entertainment, and dancing.
On St. Thomas, the world is literally your oyster. Enjoy!
