A Guide Of The Most Fun Things To Do In St. Thomas

By Michelle Yates


If you are visiting the Caribbean any time soon, then hopefully you will have the fortune of visiting St Thomas. Part of the United States Virgin Islands, St. Thomas is one of my favorite destinations to visit. There are bunch of things to do while in St. Thomas, but here are some of the best.

If you are looking to golf while visiting St Thomas, then you should book a time at Mahogany Run Golf Course. This golf course is located on the north side of the island in an area called Mahogany Run and books up fast. So make sure you call ahead.

The best beach on St. Thomas is Magen's Bay. Peaceful with crystal clear water, this beach is where the locals go and with good reason. It is synonymous with relaxation.

Another great spot to visit is Udder Delight. They refer to themselves as "world famous," which I can't confirm or deny, but their shakes are fantastic. They have a multitude of ice cream flavors and their milkshake with coffee ice cream, Bailey's and banana is a great way to end any day at the beach.

After trying every restaurant on the island, I can safely say that Thirteen takes the prize. Thirteen is located in the hills and is tough to find, so your best bet is to take a cab there.

To truly experience the Virgin Islands, plan to leave the island for a day to visit St. John.

St John is the sister island of St Thomas and is quite different. While St. Thomas is relatively built up, St. John remains undeveloped. This is part of its charm. Visit Cinnamon Bay for some excellent snorkeling.

If you really want to do it right in St Thomas, you should rent a boat with a captain for the day. This will allow you to go island hopping and see all that the US Virgin Islands has to offer.
