Exploring Virgin Islands National Park (St. John) | SAILING THE CARIBBEAN

This week we explored the Virgin Islands National Park (St. John) while Holly’s parents were aboard! We snorkeled Henley Cay, Lovango Cay, Waterlemon Cay, and Maho Bay. There was healthy coral and diverse marine life- we even got to see a small nurse shark and a turtle! We spent a day enjoying the Lovango Resort + Beach Club, and hiking around the island.

    @@HollyandRay I think that skeleton was from a sheep or goat based on the Jaw bones, someone probably took the skull.

    We saw a couple goats on the trail later on… totally could’ve been!

    Great video! I loved the under water shots with the coral, shark, and turtle. As for the skeleton, I wonder if that was a deer. When we were on St John last spring we had to brake for one crossing the road near Trunk Bay.

    Thank you!! :) We saw a couple of goats on that same trail later on, so it could’ve been a goat maybe? Who knows!

    @@HollyandRay Agreed. STJ is our favorite- that and Moab, UT. I will have to check that one out. We have been to Maho but never saw that trail. Scary fun fact- I once ventured behind the beach to explore the forest for a minute and clearly saw a very long cable- likely used for some type of camera/recording device. It looked private and not a typical "Beach Cam." I tried following it but never found the source or the camera. It was literally running over the dirt for hundreds of feet- very homemade and a bit creepy.

    I haven’t been to Moab, but all the photos look amazing! Leinster Bay has some great trails, too- The hiking footage overlooking the water in this video was from there. How scary! Who knows what was going on… 🫣

    @@HollyandRay If you like hiking and mixing it up, add Moab to your bucket list. I have been 6 times and headed back soon. We did the hike over to Waterlemon and then swam with sharks. You can moor up over there too. Do you still live on the boat? I imagine you have sailed to The Indians, Carvel Rock and the BVI? What is your favorite sailing destination? For me it does not get better than STJ but we are land lovers and have only been to the Bahamas otherwise.

    Yes we were on a mooring ball over there for a few nights, beautiful spot! We’re still on the boat, back in STT now to reprovision then heading to BVI. :)
