      Explorcation I have been to Saint Thomas but not to Saint John. But for some crazy reason I am obsessed with Saint John and have watched dozens and dozens of videos. As soon as it’s possible I’m going to visit!

    Just love this video. It makes me feel like I'm right back at one of my favorite places on the planet :) St John is such a special little island and so glad to see it's making a strong recovery after those 2 terrible hurricanes!

    • @Explorcation
      @Explorcation  5 лет назад +1

      It really is a special island. We heard so many stories of those who lived through the hurricanes and have rebuilt. It was very inspiring. The island still has a ways to go but there is progress! Thanks for watching.

    been there several times decades ago and we camped for a month two times and every day was an adventure. looks like tons of people now. Herman used to have a shuttle to town for $2 a person or you could try pointing at the ground.

    Gorgeous video of St. John! We had been there on short cruise ship excursions many times and loved it so much we came back to stay there before Maho Bay Eco camps closed down. 😢 Saw it on Travel channel with Samantha Brown. Had the most amazing time. I snorkeled around Trunk Cay. The car rental company ran out of jeeps and they gave us a horrible small compact car but in disrepair but made for some funny memories. We also stayed on St. Thomas, but much preferred staying on St. John. Also enjoyed day sails to neighboring islands. I subbed your channel 👍🏼👍🏼

    • @Explorcation
      @Explorcation  4 года назад +1

      @@analisafranco9750 YW! You would want to check with the rental car company in St Thomas. Last we knew, some companies allow their cars to go on the ferry to St John and some do not. We would also recommend looking at the car ferry schedule too. When we visited, the last car ferry of they day was pretty early. We wanted to be able to stay on St John longer. The people ferry runs much later. So that is why we decided to take the people ferry and rent a car.

    What cell service company did you use while on the island?

    • @Explorcation
      @Explorcation  4 года назад

      We used Sprint. We had good service but we would recommend downloading a Google map of the island in case your phone pings the BVI cell phone towers. We hear those charges are high. When we were on the side of the island close to the BVIs we turned our phones to airplane mode and used the downloaded map to avoid any BVI chrages.

      That is tough! We havent been to St Croix but I would say St John. It is much less populated and a large part of the island is a national park. It also has Trunk Bay, which i think is one of the most photographed beaches in the world!
