Are you wanting to only be on White Bay for the day, or interested in checking out other parts of the island? Do you want to be there when it's busy, or quiet? If I were in your situation, I'd go to White Bay when I got to JVD, and enjoy it while it's quiet. Around lunchtime, pack up and head to Foxy's Taboo on the east end of the island for lunch. From there you could catch a dinghy ride to B-Line for the afternoon, or go to the Bubbly Pool. Then taxi back to Great Harbor for a walk around, if you have time. From there you can walk back to the ferry dock to head back to STJ. That's about a 3-day itinerary for me when I'm on Jost, but it's doable in one day, too Felix

If you ask at the bar at Taboo (edited to add: AFTER having lunch or at least a few drinks there), they'll call whoever's working at B-Line and they can usually come pick you up at the dock (and take you back, of course). They might charge $5 a person for this, or they might not, depends on what day it is I guess Have fun! Felix

SusanZ said: Just make sure you check the ferry times.. they vary from day to day.. so some days (sundays) you get longer as the return ferry isn't until 5:30...
I"m partial, but I vote on going and checking out the eastern end of the island by taboo.. I've lived on JVD for several years but am always taken away by the beauty there.. The East End of Jost is the bomb-diggity! (Although I may be a little jaded! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />) Lunch at Foxy's Taboo and afternoon games at B-Line is a great way to spend the day. If you rent a dinghy you can also get out to Sandy Spit and Sandy Cay in the same afternoon.
