Day 4 -- St Thomas----Water Island , USVI

After a pretty Sunrise at 615am we arrived at Crown Bay, St Thomas for the day.. we decided to go out on our own and take the small ferry from the Crown Bay Marina right next to the cruise docks across to Water Island  the little known 4th  US Virgin Island---and about a 10 minute crossing...a beach day was in order after a short walk from the ferry dock to Honeymoon Beach.. a few more people were there than the last time we were here but still a great quiet out of the way location and away from all the hustle bustle shopping area of downtown Charlotte Amalie,St Thomas.. a perfect day at the beach.. great place....tomorrow we are in St Barts
