Customer Review:

Kincaid's sarcasm and wit make this a fun read, and his poetic style enhances the text further. This work is a quick read, and I would recommend it to... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I read this book during an 8-day sailboat charter to St. Martin and enjoyed it thoroughly. Rarely dragging anchor, it instead kept the pace of a tropical trade wind. I was fascinated first by Steve's adventures learning to shrimp with a small net in Georgia, then the passage to the Bahamas. Next is... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
As usual, the Lonely Planet book delivers tons of information for travelers of all incomes. Especially helpful are tips on where to go to avoid cruise ship crowds.

Customer Review:
I am usually not a huge Fodor's fan, but I do recommend this reference as a good general resource for under $12.00, especially for BVI first-timers. It includes the USVI, so if you're planning to be on St. John or St. Thomas, this will be helpful for that, as well. In 240 pages, it provides all the... more info | 4.0 / 5.0
