Rum & Reggae’s Virgin Islands

This in-depth guide to the necklace of idyllic (and not so idyllic) islands that span the British and U.S. Virgin Islands contains all the savvy and sophisticated traveler needs to navigate the archipelago, which includes St. Thomas, St. Croix, St. John, Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, Anegada, and more. Highlighted are what to adore and despise in this latitude—from New Year’s Eve on Jost Van Dyke, the romance of Virgin Gorda, the easy sailing of the Drake Channel and the beauty of St. John, to the traffic jams of Charlotte Amalie, cruise ship gridlock, and the brusqueness of certain island residents.
