St Thomas yacht charter - things to do in St Thomas

St. Thomas is a fabulous yacht charter destination which offers a little bit of everything to the discriminating charterer. When on the island, consider the following sites and activities for a well-rounded getaway:

• The stunning Magens Bay Beach is the place to sunbathe and relax or to get up and get moving. Enjoy swimming, kayaking, sailing, paddle boat rides, or walking the nature trail. Restaurants, taverns, and shops on the beach can provide you with anything you might need – or want! Magens Bay Beach has been deemed one of the most beautiful parks in the world by both Condé Nast and National Geographic.
  
  
• The historic city of Charlotte Amalie is the perfect location for a relaxing day of site-seeing. From King’s Street, or Kongens Gade, to its distinct yellow buildings, this city is like a page in a history book.
  
  
• Coral World Ocean Park & Undersea Observatory is a must-see location for getting up close and personal with all types of sea life. Whether you opt to feed a stingray or a Lorikeet, or swim with sea lions, or pet sharks, you will not be disappointed. If you want to experience the Caribbean marine life like nowhere else, this is the place to do it.
  
  
• To truly grasp the beauty that surrounds you on St. Thomas, you must stop at Drake’s Seat. From this spot, you can get a spectacular view not only of Magans Bay, but also of the entire line of islands that span off to the east. Bring your camera, as this beauty of the scenery will truly blow you away.
  
  
• With discounts up to 40% and a duty-free allowance of $1600 per person, kids included, you will want to spend some time in the duty free shops on St. Thomas. What can you buy? Duty-free merchandise includes perfume, jewelry, designer clothing, electronics, china, liquor, and more. When all’s said and done, you’ll have a fun time collecting new items as gifts or for yourself.

A Virgin Island yacht charter would not be complete without a trip to St. Thomas. However, while visiting St. Thomas, be sure to sail to some of the other nearby islands. Dolphin Discovery on Tortola, for instance, allows you the opportunity to swim with the dolphins. The Baths in Virgin Gorda are a great place to explore, as is Reef Bay Trail on St. John’s. The famous Carambola Golf course is on St. Croix, while St. John’s has an underwater snorkeling trail at Trunk Bay.

Enjoy your yacht charter in St. Thomas and see all that the island has to offer.
