How to get a kayak in USVI ?

Post by Reno Simpson »

I will be staying in USVI for a few months and would like to "buy" a kayak what are my best options?

I've checked craigslist, not many posts, also searched for a sporting-goods store but came up with nothing.

If anybody knows of a place to buy a new or used kayak (2 person) please let me know.

My other idea would be to have one shipped there from California but i think it would cost more than the kayak itself, what do you think?


Thanks for any help/ advice

The kayak tour operators frequently sell them. ViEco Tours is the biggest kayak tour company. Also check Best Western Emerald Beach. I've never seen anybody renting the kayaks there, so maybe they'll sell you one.
