St. John offers some of the best snorkeling, scuba diving, swimming, fishing, hiking, sailing, and underwater photography in the Caribbean. The island is known for Virgin Islands National Park, as well as for its coral-sand beaches, winding mountain roads, hidden coves, and trails that lead past old, bush-covered sugar-cane plantations. Just don't visit St. John expecting to play golf.

The most complete line of watersports equipment available, including rentals for windsurfing, snorkeling, kayaking, and sailing, is offered at the Cinnamon Bay Watersports Center, on Cinnamon Bay Beach (tel. 340/776-6330). One- and two-person sit-on-top kayaks rent for $12 to $20 per hour. You can also sail away in a 3.5m or 4m (12- or 14-ft.) Hobie monohull sailboat, for $30 to $35 per hour.
