Caneel Bay, St. John USVI




Posted by Liz

Gypsea is sitting in gorgeous Caneel Bay, on the northwest side of St. John, where we'll probably stay for the next few days or more. The beaches here are magnificent, and hopefully the snorkeling will be OK too.

We arrived yesterday (Weds, April 7th) and hope to get some hiking in while we're here in St. John. The island provides numerous hiking trails. We'll move over to Francis/Maho Bay and then to Leinster Bay, also on the north side of the island. '

It's pretty blowy for the next few days - northeasterly - and yesterday we had a VERY wet dinghy ride to/from Cruz Bay - where we had to go to check into customs and get some provisioning done. So, we'll hang here til the wind subsides and then move over to the more northern bays.

Caneel Bay resort is right here and it's where we decided to share our lives together, 11 years ago (May 1999), so it holds a special place in our hearts.
