Description: Includes a map of Saint Thomas and Saint John, two of the three main islands in the US Virgin Islands chain. Saint Thomas is the larger (32 square miles) and more populous (42,000 residents) of the two; Saint John (19 square miles/4,000 residents) is mostly within the Virgin Islands National Park (about 60% of the island), created to preserve Caribbean tropical marine and terrestrial ecosystems (the park extends off the coast, to encompass the waters, coral reefs and shoreline along the entire north coast of the island, and much of the south coast as well). Features a terrain & transport map of Saint Thomas (along with a quick driving tour & beach guide) on one side, and maps of Saint John & Charlotte Amalie (the capital & largest city in the Virgin Islands) on the other side (from Earle Publishing, 1991); and a most excellent sailing & yachting guide to anchorages in the Virgin Islands archipelago (both the US and British sides). The island chain is split between the US islands in the west (Saint Thomas, Saint John & Saint Croix), and the British islands to the east (Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, Virgin Gorda, Norman, Peter, Cooper & Anegada). The 95-page spiral-bound guide features a glossy double page for each anchorage (opening up like a wall calendar), with two shots of the harbors & coves (the first one indicating the ship channel, the second larger one showing the general vicinity), as well as an informational description of each site. Most of the anchorages featured (35) are in the British islands (a favorite setting for the sailing and yachting set); the US side features just 11 anchorage sites (it’s more a tourist spot for sun-starved North Americans in winter) (from Cruising Guide Publications, Inc., 2020).
