Ferry day trip to Tortola or JVD?

Hi all- Wanted to do something a little different and take a ferry to either Jost or Tortola for the day. Any recommendations or tips? It will be me, husband and two kids10 and 12 so while we aren't opposed to hitting a beach bar we obviously don't want that to be the only purpose of our day (I.e. D...

Private taxi from airport to red hook

Hi all-
Recommendations on private taxi from airport to ferry? Also, can you give me an estimate on cost for 4 adults and 4 kids to do this vs. the usual taxi?

Re: Tribord easybreath snorkel facemask

Thanks all. I broke down and ordered one on eBay from a us based seller. The ones that were less expensive were coming from hong kong and was nervous about its authenticity plus we leave in two weeks so wanted someone that could guarantee delivery soon. I would love to buy another so if anyone knows...

Tribord easybreath snorkel facemask

Hi all, I am on a search to find this innovative product. It seems to be in such high demand that people are selling them on eBay for three times the amount that the manufacturer sells them for-a few questions: 1-has anyone here used it? 2-does anyone know of a retailer that is selling them? 3-does ...

Re: Minors-passport card for travel to bvi's?

So not to sound like an idiot but does that mean that the bvi's would accept it since the U.S. would?

Minors-passport card for travel to bvi's?

Hi all Does anyone know if a passport card will suffice for traveling to Jost from StJ on a boat day? We are leaving in 3 weeks and dropped the ball on getting the kids passports renewed so thought this may be a better (much less expensive) option. Plus if it doesn't come in time I won't be so p-sse...

car barge-reservation?

Hi all,

We usually rent in STJ but decided to get the car in STT this year...having never done the car barge, can anyone advise if we need to make a reservation in advance or do we just show up?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Airfare Depression

Agree-airfare has gotten ridiculous but there are deals to be had. We live right near PHL airport but are driving to JFK for a flight that is a FRACTION of the PHL flight. Going up the night before and staying at a hotel at airport. Pain in the --- but worth it.

massage therapist recommendations?

Hi all, I am considering having a therapist come to our villa for me and my friend if I can get a recommendation for a good one. Will also take into consideration spas but unless things have changed, I know there are not many spa type venues. I went to Caneel a few years back expecting a relaxing ho...

Re: Parking at Newark

Ironman, thank you for the tip! Staying there on your recommendation. Flight from Newark was approx $200 pp less than flying from Philly and it CONNECTS in Philly! Worth the drive up and stay overnight for $125 (esp w/the free parking!!).

Thanks again and safe travels to you all! :)
