IMHO I don't think it's any different on any of the islands. Times have changed for sure. I know people who go to Jamaica & Dominican & they feel unsafe when they leave the compound around their resort. Even on a tour bus our son went on in Dominican they were told stay close to the bus as it's unsafe. I'm staying with St. Martin. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Thumbsup.gif" alt="" />
