St Thomas Travel Guide: Reviews, photos, & videos
Cruise ships anchor daily in the deep water port of Charlotte-Amalie in St. Thomas, the most visited of the three major U.S. Virgin Islands. From the ships 30,000 passengers head to the duty free shops along cobblestone streets in this quaint, colonial town to snap up diamonds in every color imaginable, liquor and knick knacks. Some couples come here solely to buy an engagement ring, with a tropical getaway gift-with-purchase. The steep inclines of St. Thomas mean that everywhere you go you’re treated to incredible views of intensely blue waters and of the smaller islands wrapping around the island like a necklace. Picture-perfect Magens Bay on the north side of St. Thomas is one of the Caribbean’s most photographed beaches. The horseshoe shape of the beach protects it from the ocean’s waves and the turquoise water that fills the horseshoe makes it look like an enormous swimming pool.
