Sightseeing
Planning a day trip to St. John is an absolute must. A large portion (80%) of the island is National Park property so the beaches are preserved and well kept and just breathtaking. You can take the passenger ferry (runs every hour on the hour) or your rental vehicle (if your rental agency allows) and spend a day beach hopping or hanging around Cruz Bay. St. John is filled with great restaurants, pristine beaches, hiking trails and lots of historical sights.

A passport is needed to enter the BVI but it is worth the trip if you can dedicate a day. The BVIs are gorgeous and you can explore multiple islands (Jost Van Dyke, Tortola, Virgin Gorda) within a day.

The setting for this unusual – and stunningly beautiful -- restaurant is a 200-year old, restored plantation field house. The menu (with a balanced selection of seafood, meats, and vegetarian options) is as lovingly created as is the overall experience offered all guests of the Stone Farmhouse. Dining can be inside the estate itself or outdoors in the courtyard and gardens.
