| How To Get To St John From Nyc |
Ditch the Subway, Grab Your Swimsuit
First things first, let's talk about getting there. Sadly, there's no magical underwater tunnel or friendly dolphin taxi service from NYC to St. John. You're gonna have to deal with the modern world and its contraptions.
- Flying: This is the most common and, let's face it, the most civilized way to get to this Caribbean gem. You'll be jetting off to St. Thomas, St. John's bigger sister, and then hopping on a ferry. It's like a two-step to paradise!
- Sailing: If you're feeling adventurous and have a yacht (or rich friends), sailing is an option. Just remember, pirates might be involved. Or at least the occasional seagull stealing your chips.
- Swimming: This is not recommended. Even Michael Phelps would struggle with the East River current and the Jersey Shore jellyfish.
Packing: Leave the Ugg Boots at Home
Now, what to pack? Well, forget that winter coat and those chunky sweaters. It's time to embrace your inner beach bum. Think bikinis, board shorts, sunscreen that smells like coconuts, and a really good book. Oh, and don't forget your snorkel gear. You're gonna want to explore those underwater worlds!
Tip: Train your eye to catch repeated ideas.
Things to Do: More Than Just Sunbathing
Sure, lying on the beach and sipping pi�a coladas is great, but St. John has more to offer than just relaxation. You can hike through lush rainforests, explore hidden coves, and snorkel with colorful fish. If you're feeling adventurous, you can even try your hand at paddleboarding or kayaking. Just remember, don't try to wrestle a sea turtle. They're probably just as chill as you want to be.
