Our Honeymoon |
March 5-12, 2000 Carnival Paradise cruising the Eastern Caribbean |
When we arrived, we set out to explore Old San Juan, before meeting for our kayaking tour at the Las Cabezas de San Juan nature reserve. The tour was at night so we could experience the bioluminescent bay (there are only 4 bioluminescent bays in the world, and 3 of them are in Puerto Rico!) |
When we arrived in Tortola, we explored the shops in town before catching the ferry to Virgin Gorda. The water was such a beautiful blue in both Tortola & Virgin Gorda. |
After a 30 minute ferry ride, we arrived at Virgin Gorda to explore the beach and The Baths (giant granite boulder formations along the water). |
Charlotte Amalie's harbor was a sight to see as we pulled into St. Thomas! Here, we browsed through some shops & went to see the 2nd oldest synagogue in the western hemisphere (but it was closed for renovations!) We also took a ferry to St. John... |
St. John was beautiful! When we arrived, we visited the National Park service for suggestions on hiking trails & beaches. We ended up taking the Lind Point Trail to Honeymoon Beach (fitting, since we were on our honeymoon!). |
