Very small island and they ran out of taxis and other services. Highly recommend taking an excursion with the ship as all services on the small island were wiped out by the excursions.

Took a ferry to St. John's and had a great day at Trunk Bay since we had been to St. Thomas in the past and never St. John's.

We went to DePalm Island on our own. Probably cheaper with ship excursion. Great place for kids - waterslides, french fries galore, beautiful beaches with full amenities and easy access to snorkeling for all ages.
