The Red Hook Dive Center is conveniently located 5 minutes away in Red Hook. They offer daily morning 2 tank and afternoon 1 tank dives and night dives on Wednesdays. Try the FREE Discover Scuba Diving classes held daily at the Sugar Bay Wyndham Resort pool and then go on an afternoon dive the same day! All dives leave from the dock behind the shop. This is truly a first class dive operation. If you have never been diving and are considering it, this is the place to either get certified or to do a “Discover Scuba Diving” course and go for a Discover Scuba Diving aka DSD dive.

My wife and I have been staying in this condo for our one week vacation over the last 3 years and I can truly say, it is by far one of the best vacation spots we've ever been to! The beach is second to none and the views are spectacular...no matter which direction you look. The condo has all the comforts of home and even some comforts we wish our home had! We never worry about a thing when we are in St. Thomas...maybe because of the island mentality...or maybe because the condo, the ammenities, the service, and the atmosphere are ALL exactly right! Thank you for 3 wonderful trips to paradise...so far! We look forward to many more.
Recommended for:Girls getaway, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, sightseeing, families with young children.

Fantastic location! We had a wonderful time watching our 2 year old jump through the waves and our 6 month old taking quiet naps on the beach. The condo is so convenient it made going to the beach with young children very relaxing. My husband would take our 2 year old for sunrise walks to get the paper at the gift shop. We also loved the convenience of having 2 restaurants within walking distance. The condo was very comfortable for the 4 of us. We would bbq at night and have quiet dinners after the kids went to bed. We look forward to returning next year!! Many thanks for an unforgettable family vacation! The O'Neills
