YouTube Video Description

If your cruise stops in St. Thomas and you're wondering what it's actually like to take the ferry to St. John, this video shows our full day visiting Trunk Bay, one of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean. 👉 If you're planning this excursion yourself, we also made a step-by-step guide explaining exactly how to do this ferry trip from St. Thomas to St. John including taxis, ferry schedules, timing, and costs: https://youtu.be/mz174KV_aKk In this vlog we: • Take a taxi from the cruise port to Red Hook • Ride the ferry from St. Thomas to Cruz Bay • Take a taxi across St. John to Trunk Bay • Spend the day snorkeling and relaxing at the beach • Head back to the ship before sail away Trunk Bay is part of Virgin Islands National Park, which helps preserve the beach and surrounding waters. The snorkeling trail, crystal clear water, and natural setting make it one of the most famous beaches in the Virgin Islands. This was our third time visiting Trunk Bay, and even though it was the busiest we've seen it, it still felt peaceful compared to many other cruise port beaches.
