Shopping on St. John

Shipwreck Landing Shops -  (just down the hill and to the left) – cool island stuff just down the hill from your luxury villa rental.

Skinny’s Shops - (turn right at the “triangle” in Coral Bay) - more cool island stuff

Mongoose Junction -  (in town) fine shopping, art galleries, jewelry . . . still quaint and fun. I like "Cariba's" jewelry the best. And "Best of Both Worlds" is also very nice for very stuff. Many eclectic places to shop with a cool drink.

Wharfside Village - (near the water in town) along the streets—also quaint and fun. ( I like the store called "Now and Zen" down the street from 1st Bank)

Or, if you are full of energy and money, take a break from your luxury villa rentals vacation paradise and catch the ferry to Charlotte Amalie in St. Thomas one morning and power shop. Go up and down the streets. Leave the next day for plenty of rest at Mooncottage as you will need it.

Coral Bay is "the country" to Cruz Bay’s "town".  Make sure to visit this unusual East End community.  You will find interesting shopping, restaurants, bars, deli, water sports & probably a few surprises. The goats are not wild; they belong to people. They are not pets.  

Bordeaux Mountain Overlook -  Enjoy a cool drink at the outdoor refreshment stand. After a while of relaxing in the cool breeze, do some shopping. Eventually, you will make it to Coral Bay. No rush.

Coccoloba - This shopping center is the newest one in Coral Bay. The plaza is, more or less, located across from Island Blues.

Triangle to East End - This drive takes you past Hurricane Hole, Haulover Bay & all the way to Round Bay.  Tortola looks so close that you almost can touch it.  See for yourself why so many artists live out this way.  Enjoy unusual island shopping & eating.  Slow down for dogs sleeping in the road.  

Triangle to Salt Pond - Go right at the triangle & get a look at Coral Harbor & its impressive fleet of traditional & modern sailing vessels.  Enjoy the breezes & views.  Shop, eat, swim & people watch along the way.
