We are coming up to our first trip to the USVI, and we are wondering about cell reception and internet coverage from the anchorages near St. Thomas & St. John?
I have ATT. pretty decent coverage. turn off data roaming and extra charges won't be an issue if your phone auto switches to another network. with ATT we sign up for $10/day to enable our plan to transfer if we would kick over to another network and we still use it. International roaming or something like that.
st thomas no issues.
st john can be spotty in maho area leinster etc. coming around east end you may switch to BVI network. times of day with use is high it slows significantly. maho can be so spotty that it works on one mooring and not on the next mooring over.
overall I have no complaints though. if i don't get internet, then i'm on vacation.
have fun.
