Don't miss this little walkway between streets in St. Thomas. Excellent little bar in the middle of the walkway had great service and good drinks. Locals seemed to favor this bar. The shops, however, were the crown of the passage. Just beautiful galleries of local artists for art work, jewelry, local items. Really unique items and friendly shop owners. Enjoyed the rainy afternoon in this quaint area that's close to center city but seems miles away from cruise ship shops.
