    That’s impressive, halfway done visiting all 63 National Parks and U.S. Virgin Islands looks amazing👏🏻👍🏻🦎Yeah, cockroaches and wild mice can be quite pesky🪳🐭 The best snorkeling experience I ever had was an excursion on my cruise through Royal Caribbean. There were lots of fish and brain coral in the small reef and it was fun getting to jump off the top of the boat that brought us to the snorkeling area. The color of the water in the Caribbean is truly something else, I definitely remember it🐬🌊🩵👌🏻

    Cool Stingray and such clear water. The B&B looked better than I would have thought knowing there was roaches and mice. Overall looks like a great trip.

    Great video! Very nice place! Id rather have roaches than mice. From experience a mouse can get in your house from just leaving the door open.

      Thanks Michael! I enjoyed visiting, minus the pests.

    Congrats on making it to half of the national parks! I had a similar experience venturing to Culebra Island in Puerto Rico, where I actually got to swim with many turtles and a few stingrays too 😊 Granted it’s not a national park though, but the snorkeling there seems to be much better compared to in any tropical island National Parks in the U.S.

      That sounds awesome! I’d love to visit Puerto Rico at some point.

    I believe when my dad had his destination wedding in St Thomas back in 2020, I think we did a day at Maho Bay in St John (might have been another, but that one sounded familiar). Long story short, they hated the hotel they had to pick for the destination, so we went to the hotel they originally planned for the honeymoon (the Ritz Carrolton) and with the wedding ceremony pushed off one day due to scheduling at the resort and a hurricane giving us kids an extra day on the island, it was a no brainer for my dad and stepmom to add St. John. I would probably enjoy St. Thomas and St. John with more of the touristy stuff open, but I feel there might be more up my alley on St Croix-over 40mi away from the other two

    It’s so awesome you got to visit this park! I did not hike Caneel Hill so I’ll have to put that on my list. I agree that Dry Tortugas has stronger snorkeling, but I always thought Francis Bay had the best snorkeling in USVI. I saw quite a few turtles there.

      Thanks for watching. I really enjoyed the park! I wish I had enough time to check out Francis Bay, as I would’ve loved to see turtles.

    If you travel in tropical environments, expect to live among bugs and critters.
