In today's episode, I'm going to share with you the Top 9 things to do in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands! If you want to do a lot in one day, this is the perfect 1-day itinerary for you! But if you prefer to take it slow, then pick and choose the activities you like the best from today's episode.
This is an updated version of my previous "Top 10 Things to do US Virgin Islands 2021" episode. Link here: • ST. THOMAS TOP 10 thin...
With its lush green jungle, world-class beaches, and a rich history that includes famous Pirates - This island is becoming a hot spot for travelers. Getting here only takes a 3-hour flight from New York! In today’s episode, I partnered with a local company called TrekLocal, a locally-owned, super affordable, digital travel concierge company based in the USVI. They’re unique because the founder, Amber, was born and raised in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The TrekLocal team creates fully custom travel itineraries personalized to your travel preferences, with a focus on helping you experience authentic USVI culture.
TrekLocals Website: www.treklocals.com/
St. Thomas is an incredible island located in the Caribbean, specifically in the US Virgin Islands. The USVI, as it’s commonly known, is made up of 4 islands where St. Thomas is the most famous one and home to the capital Charlotte Amalie. We have been going there for the last 6 years, and we are not planning on stopping any time soon.
Please let me know if you agree with the list, if I forgot anything, or if you have done any of these activities yourself! I’m so happy my videos can help you have an even better experience on the island! Thank you all so much for watching, and I look forward to hearing from you in the comments!
Stay safe.
X Camilla

Great vid, ive been watching all the St. Thomas vids cuz im going in sept. for 4 nights 5 days. My 2 things i plan on doing while there are SNUBA and a half day fishing charter. As i understand it at that time of year yellow fin and black tuna are the thing to catch. Im sure it will be enjoyable no matter what. Lots of good info in your video, thank you.

@@CamillaJohannesen a man made ours, and they were in larger cups, but yes, we watched and they used different rums and what we think what was a fresh banana smoothie type of mix, and then on the top they poured Cruzan Rum. It was sooooo good! I only had one because I was driving the Jeep, but my people had like three and they were knee-walking by the time we left. It was hilarious.

Just a slight correction. crown mountain is actually the highest point on St thomas. You should visit there. Its not a tourist area though. Love your videos
@CamillaJohannesen
@CamillaJohannesen 2 года назад
Yeah I heard someone else said that too 😅 Thanks for letting me know. I did say on Mountain tops website, that they were the highest view point on the island, so maybe they mean view point, like you don't have to hike to get there? I don't know. But yes, I would love to hike up Crown Mountain, we haven't done a proper hike on any of our trips yet!

Even if you don’t film it, stop at SOS Antiques and Turkish Bazaar in Charlotte Amalie. Both those shops were very interesting. Also another channel I’ve watched a lot and also met while visiting St Thomas is ru-vid.com. He does a lot of hikes and organizes some tours. It would be cool to see you two collaborate on a vlog. It’s so awesome to see the places in St Thomas in videos that I’ve now seen in person. They’re real. I’m hooked and want to go back.

Hii Robert! Thank you soooo much for those recommendations, I am def going to visit those stores when I go back. I love vintage and antique stores! And yes, Blyden is amazing, it's actually my friend's cousin, so we were supposed to meet on this trip, but it didn't happen! I'm sure we can do a collab next time I'm there, he's really good! And yes, it's always fun to watch travel vlogs from places you've been, it feels like you have visited a movie set haha.
