My #1 thing would be to dive or snorkel at Waterlemon.
If I got 2 choices, #2 is Uncle Joe's. :wink:

Hum..........That's a hard one. Because, I would want to go so much but, I would start my day off at Hawksnest Beach

Then I would head over to Gibney Beach

And then I would have Dinner at the Banana Deck.

Hi JMQ, That picture was taken on the side of the road going up towards Peace Hill. I don't have my pictures on a site I just download the ones I want to put on this site.
You are the one that gave the imformation on Flickr so I try it and I like it but, I don't have all of my pictures on there. I will soon some day.
I do have some old ones on Webshots. They are from my first visit to STJ. I didn't have a digital camera with me for that trip so I had to scan the photos. You can look at them but, they are not that great.
I just want to tell you that I really enjoy looking at your pictures. They are Awesome.

O.K, One thing? First thing Stay there. O.K. the 2nd thing is unacceptable to talk about on this forum. Now as to actual STJ things....Find some old "pirate friends"

Imagine that you can only do one thing, just one, what would it be?

I am trying to make a list of things for my first timer friends.

Thanks
Sunday Brunch at Miss Lucy's.....I don't remember how good or bad the food was....I do remember seeing a myriad of the most vibrant hues of Caribbean Blue, it was unforgettable.

Yum...Miss Lucy's! The view is amazing and the food is good too. Just look out for marauding goats!

Hansen Bay is an awesome snorkel experience.

There are a few beaches on Hansen Bay, one being Vie's Campground where access is limited and there is a small fee.

Down the road a bit is a small (and I mean small) beach right on the road. Go in the water and snorkel to your left all the way down to Pelican Rock (just a big ole rock sticking out of the water).

Fantastic!

One thing on STJ

Post by sea-nile »

That is really hard. I guess I would go to Trunk Bay in the morning and spend the day snorkeling and laying on the beach.
