Things to do in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands: The Best Gear Rentals

October 11, 2021 Vergie Nakamoto

Like all of the U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Thomas has plenty of opportunities to lounge on the beach, splash in the sea, or amp it up with watersports. It also boasts a bountiful duty-free shopping scene – just be prepared to brave the cruise ship crowds. Charlotte Amalie swells with Danish colonial architecture and pirate legend. Shiver ye timbers at Blackbeard’s Castle, then work up an appetite by climbing the historic 99 Steps, constructed from the ballast bricks of 18th century Danish ships.

I want to highly encourage anyone visiting St. Thomas, USVI, to stop by Coastal Watersports locates at Sapphire Beach Resort Marina. I worked with Isaac, the owner, and he was extremely professional, friendly, and made my Wave Runner experience amazing! Both he and his staff were great instructors on operation and safety measures of the waverunners. I was extremely pleased and had a great time Jet skiing in the beautiful waters around Sapphire Beach. A must see! I will definitely be returning to visit and looking forward to renting again from Coastal Watersports!
