At Cas Cay, enjoy a hermit crab race, hike to tidal pools and volcanic cliffs, and visit a rare geologic blow hole. Next, we'll hike the pristine, deserted 15-acre island of Cas Cay, which is part of Virgin Islands National Park. Enjoy the many breathtaking views from the coral and shell laded beaches.

OLD SAN JUAN SHOPPING AND BAR HOP TOUR - $105 per personYour guide will meet you at the pier. She "gets it" and will take you to the most interesting shops in the Old City. Some you might have found on your own, but others we know you would miss without direction. You will find the best sales, offers, and places before you are done. And your guide knows all of the owners, so expect the best service.
To soften your shopping experience, especially if you are trying on swimsuits (we all have been there!), you will be stopping along the way to get a taste of the finer alcoholic beverages in town. Mojito’s, local hors d'oeuvres, and a sample of a favorite tropical drink is included. |
