You can rent a jeep or take a safari bus tour from Cruz Bay and have a fun filled day visiting beautiful beaches and following woodland trails with panoramic hidden emerald cays and primeval shorelines with white beaches and crystal clear waters. Hike the lush trails to Rams Head and view abandoned 18th century sugar plantations along the Reef Bay trail. Among the orchids, hibiscus and fragrant frangipani you may see an occasional wild donkey and mongoose which inhabit St. John.
