Setting sail from Charlotte Amalie (St Thomas)
The busiest and most developed of the Virgin Islands, St. Thomas is nevertheless blessed with typically Caribbean good looks. Ruled by the Danish for over 200 years, the island was purchased by the USA in 1917, and is now part of the US Virgin Islands, along with neighbouring St. Croix, St. John and Water Island. The main town, Charlotte Amalie, is situated on a perfect natural harbour, and in its colonial heyday its warehouses were filled with indigo, tobacco and cotton. Today it's still a thriving port town, complete with duty free shopping malls and a lively nightlife, but there are also plenty of quieter, wilder spots on the island where you can escape the crowds.
Don't miss
Frenchtown’s brightly painted frame houses on the west side of the harbour, for a long lunch overlooking the water .

U.S. Virgin Islands: Cruz Bay (St John)
St John is the quietest and least developed of the US Virgin Islands, with two thirds of the island designated as a National Park. There are several hiking trails that showcase the island’s unspoilt natural beauty, and it’s a popular spot for aquatic pursuits including snorkelling, kayaking and scuba diving.

Antigua and Barbuda: Prickly Pear Island

Saint Barthélemy: Gustavia
Gustavia is the chic and petite capital of Saint Barths, a tiny French Caribbean island that’s renowned as a haunt of the rich and the famous. You can certainly live well here if you’ve got the means, with an array of gourmet restaurants and luxury boutiques aimed squarely at the A-list. The beautiful beaches, on the other hand, are free and open to all.
10 December
Anguilla: Sandy Ground
Tiny Anguilla is home to no less than 33 beaches, blessed with some of the most gloriously white sands in the Caribbean. A clutch of high end hotels and gourmet restaurants attract a well-to-do crowd, but the island has a more low key, laid back vibe than its glitzy neighbours, St Martin and St Barths.

Guadeloupe: Terre-de-Haut
Eight tiny islands make up the Iles des Saintes, a sparsely inhabited archipelago off the southern coast of Guadeloupe. The most interesting island is hilly Terre-de-Haut, almost entirely populated by the fair-skinned descendants of Breton sailors and home to a beautiful bay reminiscent of a mini Rio de Janeiro.

Arriving in St John's
Antigua is famously home to 365 beaches - one for every day of the year - and there is an undeniable allure to the many white sand coves dotted along the coast. The capital, St John's, is worth a look, but if you've got time to visit the south coast you'll find historic Nelson's Dockyard a lot more interesting.
Your home from home
What we love
This has to be one of our favourite travel experiences. We love the al fresco feel, dining outside for all meals if you wish, and even spending the night sleeping under the stars on the Balinese dream beds. The totally laid back style means SeaDream is the ultimate chill.

Where to stay on St Thomas
If you’re staying a while, we’d go for the Secret Harbour Beach Resort on the east coast – too far for an overnight stay though.
Explore St Thomas
There are some great kayak and snorkelling tours which will take you away from the crowds.
