Sunset Ridge Villas St. John USVI

The Links

There are several general interest websites on and about St. John and the U. S Virgin Islands. They can give you in more detail what the islands are like and what you can expect.
See St. John
(A good general guide to St. John especially for beaches, snorkeling and hiking. Maintained by the author of a popular local guide book, "St. John, Off the Beaten Path."
St. John Guide Book
(An online version of the quintessential tourist guide that is available at kiosks and tourist attractions all over the island. Humorous and informative, a staple of any visit to St. John.)
stjohnusvi.com
(Another good overview of St. John with maps, accomodations, and answers to most of your questions.)

Two thirds of the island is National Park. The opportunities for natural and historical exploration are endless.
The Virgin Islands National Park
(This is the standard government National Park web site for the Virgin Islands National Park. Good information on what you'll need to know to navigate the park safely.)
The Trail Bandit
(A site for hikers by a fellow hiker who has been, on occasion, at odds with the National Park. It is still a very good site with good map information.)

Getting to St. John is more than just stepping on and off an airplane. After stepping off the plane in St. Thomas you must get a cab that will take you to a ferry terminal where you will catch a ferry to St. John. It is not as bad as it sounds and it is part of the adventure.
VI Now Getting There
(A well kept site that keeps track of ferry schedules and fares.)
VI Now Getting Around St. Thomas
(Where to find the current fares for your cab ride. Don't be reluctant to ask the driver before departing.)

St. John is such a great place that people like to talk about it all the time. They also enjoy sharing what they know about the place. Here are two of the most active, friendly and informative destination forums on the internet. Lurk and learn or dive right in. You will be welcomed.
virgin-islands-on-line.com
(Take a little time and lurk around at this site. If you have a question, check the search function first then ask away. These people can be very helpful. And they love St. John.)
Trip Advisor
(This is part the Trip Adviser empire, but still a home for friendly and helpful St. John obsessives. Many of whom also visit the virgin-islands-on-line.com site regularly. The obsession can go that deep.
