Just back from St. John in the US Virgin Islands - and with the onset of frigid temperatures in New England I wish I was still there! As always I am convinced St. John is among the very best Caribbean cruising grounds, in my experience more beautiful and less crowded than the traditional BVI charter areas. The beaches and mountains are protected and pristine, the snorkeling like heaven, the water as good as it gets. Why not check out a bareboat charter and head down this winter?
