Ferry Options

The question of which ferry to take from St. Thomas depends on whether you prefer water or land travel:

Prefer water travel: Charlotte Amalie (5 min taxi, 45 min ferry) 
Prefer land travel: Red Hook (30 min taxi, 20 min ferry) 

Cost analysis is pretty close: (taxi prices are from 2002 info)
Charlotte Amalie:  $14 (@ $7 taxi, $7 ferry) 
Red Hook: $13 (@ $10 taxi, $3 ferry)

Both ferries come into (and will depart from) Cruz Bay on St. John.  Schedules are as follows:
