Having dipped our toes in the shores of several different Caribbean islands, I began to feel that I was really developing my sea legs. At least I thought that I had. For many years now, much of my spare time is often spent exploring the www, and traveling, albeit virtually, to a new and different […]

Nothing soothes our island itch quite like time spent talking all things tropical with like-minded, salty souls. We got just such a scratch this past January when we ran into the good folks from Rum Therapy while attending Surf Expo in Orlando. Hearing their island tales, and seeing their great images got us thinking about […]
As we have traveled throughout the Caribbean, and met with countless numbers of artists, we often ask where they draw their inspiration from. Almost unanimously they tell us that they selected this life in the tropics, not only for its enviable climate, but because the calming colors are an inspiration to their artist’s spirit. We […]
The votes are cast, and the ballots have been counted, in the 2013 Warm Faces, Warm Places Photo Contest! What was a close contest for a number of days, turned into a landslide win, and an unforeseen display of sportsmanship. For a good part of the contest, two entries went head to head as voters […]

To some we have had the good fortune of sampling a good variety of Caribbean Islands. Still others will say we have but touched the tip of the iceberg. But after over 30 island landings, we are finding that the more we travel to new and exciting island destinations, the more we feel the strong […]
With great anticipation we scoured the map plotting our course for the day. We had planned this first day to quickly give ourselves a snapshot view of the best and most notable strands of St. Thomas’ shorelines. We charted a path on this trip to tour the eastern and north-shore beaches, map and requisite camera […]
