Flying into St. Thomas
As another option, you can fly into St Thomas, USVI (STT) which is a 30 min ferry ride from Tortola. Please note it’s important to check the ferry schedule to avoid overnight in St Thomas. In addition, it will take 30-45 minutes to get from the St. Thomas airport into Charlotte Amalie, where the ferry dock is located. If you do have to spend a night in St. Thomas, we’d recommend the Holiday Inn athttp://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/1/en/hotel/STTWP?&GCID=S15434x001&KEYWORD=%22hotel+in+st+thomas%22&cm_mmc=Google-PS-HolidayInn-_-BN-MSAC-_-St.+Thomas-_-hotel+in+st+thomas%7C-%7C-510736128839670262
