By Kathrine Franks


The US Virgin Islands are a world away from the hustle and bustle of stateside life. With a history and culture that is distinctly Caribbean; the Virgin Islands really are more like visiting another country. The vast majority of the island's is a national park that provides opportunities for many trekking and wildlife spotting. Below are Helpful Tips for St John Usvi Travel Guide.

Most casual meals like burgers, salads, and sandwiches are available at a relatively cheaper price of $10-15 US D. Unless you want to live on pasta and canned food, then you will spend about $40 per week. Groceries will cost around $65 per week, as most food has to be imported. Food on the island is expensive, but there are a few outlets dotted about the island that offer a chance to cook for relatively little money.

Go diving. The island has a lot dive spots around it. The warm, crystal-clear water provides great opportunities to see tropical fish and coral. If you do not know how to dive, many dive schools here will teach you. Snorkeling is one of the most enjoyable things to do on St John. Watch for strong waves, currents, jet skis, boats, changing weather conditions and the distance you have traveled.

St. John is also a fun place to base yourself for day trips to some of the international islands in the area, including Virgin Gordan and Tortola. Diving is likely to be the most expensive thing you will do on this island. The sign is really small, so if you cannot find the dock, ask the workers by the passenger ferries.

There is a simple highway numbering system. Some roads just dead-end, or end at an unmarked crossroads. Roads are marked with rounded signs. Roads are not well noticeable and some are not even indicated at all and designations and are confusing. It is not unusual to come to a intersection where one must go round to remain on the current highway

Getting around any place of the Island's is not difficult. All of the place have a bus and are regulated taxi service. Upon arrival at Cruz Bay, rental cars, taxis and scooters are available. Generally, car rental rates will be comparable to the mainland U. S. Locals are likely to know the roads, while tourist maps usually emphasize the numbers. If you want to check at different beaches or explore the island beyond just the west side.

The history, beautiful beaches, myriad activities, good food, and no-passport-required status make the Virgin Islands an inviting beach destination for many Americans.

So long, as a foreign place is not touched during the journey. The islands may seem like paradise, but the crime rate is comparable to many large cities.
