Sports
Tennis, swimming, Caribbean snorkeling, Caribbean sailing, scuba-diving, windsurfing, deep sea Caribbean fishing and Caribbean hiking are all readily available. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy hiking on the many park trails (the Virgin Island National Park Service has a Visitor Center in Cruz Bay that offers a free trail map and guide to the extensive hiking trail network). The National Park maintains an underwater trail in Trunk Bay that is a great introduction for novice snorkelers. Salt Bay on the south coast near Ram's Head provides for shelter from the winter swells and lucky swimmers have a chance to swim with sea turtles.
If you are staying at a resort or a villa, you should really try to go out on a day-sailer. These frequently are wonderfully crafted sailing yachts with crew to provide for your every need and take to you lovely remote spots. Lunch, beverages and snorkeling gear are generally provided.
