This property was in a great location. Being on the east side of St Thomas, it was a ~3 minute drive to the ferry to go over to St Johns. We loved the bay/alcove for the whole condo complex. Snorkeling was just a ~200-300 yard walk at most to drop in the water right there. There were some smaller turtles in the bay and a few sting rays as well. I most enjoyed snorkeling out to the edges of the bay on each side and when there was no current, swimming a bit past the edge to start to go around the tip a little. It had a little more depth, even better clarity, and quite often more fish. There is also a great little walkway on the right side of the bay where you can walk out on the finger of land that separates Sapphire Beach from the next bay over. We took advantage of the onsite pizza place numerous times. Driving on the island is an adventure in itself having to stay on the left on narrow roads that wind through the hills and mountains. Also, if you want to do some day excursions to some of the other VIs, there are many options out of the Red Hook area just ~15 minutes south. We did the excursion out to the Caves which was a great day trip to one of the British VIs… a bit pricey but recommended. It was definitely one of the high points. With easy access to the ferry to St Johns, we actually did 2 separate day trips there. St John’s has a totally different vibe and pace with more nature, leas traffic, and some great snorkeling spots as well.
