Lots of great shops, one-of-a-kind type plus several eateries make this a fun destination if you've had enough beach for the day. Also nice in the evening.

Stores close together including some restaurants... Nice and clean, not much more to say. Lots of stairs and walkways so not very wheelchair friendly.
Great place for souvenirs and more, clothes, house stuff, etc. Something for everyone. Easy walk from ferry dock in cruz bay
Robin at Caravan Gallery was SO helpful and accommodating. Be sure to stop in! Then have a "Lime in de Coconut" drink at the Sun Dog Cafe.

We stayed on St. Thomas but really enjoyed shopping in Mongoose Junction on St. Thomas. Clean, safe, non-pushy clerks and a variety of shops. I left my cellphone in Big Planet and came back an hour later and the staff had picked it up and returned it to me. I thought it was gone forever--Thanks Big Planet Staff!
A great place to browse the various shops, relax with a beverage and enjoy a great meal whether lunch or dinner. Great specialty shops and a good assortment of places to eat. My husband and I enjoy eating at the Ocean Grill when we are shopping on vacation.
