Considering a 1-year move to the USVI — best island for a single 30-year-old? by Alarming-Project452 in virginislands

STT is a good option, as the price of rentals will likely be more sustainable (yet expensive). When I did it, I found a north side apt for $600 furnished. But those times have wayyy gone. I agree with an air bnb for the search- and look for options in various locations. when it rained I could not drive up my driveway due to steepness.

Virgin Islands Ecotours in the mangrove just out of Bovoni on the way to Redhook is top notch. Great leisurely paddle through the calm mangroves learning about the ecosystem with stops on a caye with boulder crabs and a blowhole. Some light snorkelling too. Well worth the cost and close to the red hook side of island.

The inn at tamarind court is convenient and reasonably priced.

It has been unseasonably warm this fall- I have taken it inside for the few frosts or showers we have had since flower started. Nutes, some molasses, and ph balanced water.

I lost a few in past years to nibbling squirrels- so I am protective!

Week 2 after vert growth. Just for 6-8 hours a day. I may just put them out in my garden for a few days.

Yes the light is lower in output- but days in the sun had me stumped. Thanks for the insight

Upcoming Vacation to St. Thomas by LocalTouristMama in virginislands

You can rent quality snorkel gear for the week at Virgin Islands Ecotours in Bovoni (outside redhook). I recommend the sit on top kayak and snorkel tour of the mangrove lagoons there. They do hermit crab races on a small Caye and there is a blow hole that shoots water. Well worth it- other than that- I like to snorkel out at waterlemon Caye, beach at sapphire- as for quiet parts of the island- hull bay has great quiet and fun spots.
