Not Super June 4, 2007
Sarah B. Nelson (lexington, ky)
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book will definitely get you in the mood for a Caribbean vacation. Unfortunately, it is not a great guide for navigating the islands.
Take the chapter on Tortola, for instance. The book makes no mention of the hotels at Cane Bay Garden, which are my favorites on the island for value. The book also leaves out some practical details. For instance, it correctly identifies Brewer's Bay (BVI, not St. Thomas), as a great place for snorkeling. But fails to mention the higher than average presence of vacation-ruining sea urchins, or give tips on avoiding them.
Then, there are the maps. The maps in this book are the clearest and easiest ones you can find anywhere. Sadly, the good folks at Moon Handbook accomplished this, by adding a few roads that never existed and moving tourist attractions closer to main roads than their actual locations. It makes for confusing driving to say the least.
I used to live on St. Thomas, and I've seen my share of Virgin Islands guides. Notwithstanding the confounding maps, this isn't the worst guide you could get... but it's definitely not super.
