#231: Sandcastle (pg 865; Listed as Jost Van Dyke in 2nd Ed, pg 1069)

Nov. 28, 2018
We arrived by cruise ship to Tortola.  We hopped in a cab and took a cab ($12/person) to the West End where we got on a ferry ($30/adult; seniors and children are discounted:  Note: BRING CASH!  They say they accept cards, but their machine wasn't working when we were there and they said it hadn't been working for quite some time, so they were only accepting cash and the closest ATM was all the way back in Road Town, a half hour drive away not to mention an addition $24/person to go back to Road Town and then back to West end again.  Also ferries only leave every couple of hours, so look ahead at schedule).  We took the 10am ferry and were on Jost Van Dyke by 10:30.  Once there, we hopped in another cab ($5/person - again, BRING CASH!  There are NO ATM's on the ENTIRE island), which took us to Sandcastle....

And the Soggy Dollar Bar.....

And White Bay Beach!


Look at that WATER!!!!!


Chillin with my mom.



My husband's view





My son, Tanner looking for fish and shells

Verdict:  Yes!!  Do it!!  This day at White Bay will go down in my mind as one of my very favorite "beach days."  The water was breathtakingly beautiful, clear and warm.  The sand was white and soft.  The beach was clean.  The people were friendly.  It was the "total package!"
