I have heard that the St. John Beach tour typically is a little
overcrowded. The benefit of the St. John beaches is that they are
pristine with that deserted isle feel...until 8 tour busses of
flip-flopped tourists arrive. Given the choie having seen the beach
while on a tour...Eco Hike.

I've tried to work out the details for just going over there on my own
to go to one of the more secluded beaches, but I always get a little
concerned abouyt making it back to the ship. If you must do beach and
want lots of nice surf but amenities to go along with it, catch a cab
to the Sapphire Beach resort on St. Thomas. Very few tourists there
and the beach has everything you need to a relaxing day in the sun.

We will be sailing on the Adventure of the Seas in a few weeks and are
trying to decided between the St. John Eco Hike and St. John Beach
Tour shore excursions out of St. Thomas. Would anyone who has taken
either of these shore excursions please let me know what you thought
of them and if you would take them again. Thank you.
