We'll be sailing 7 nights, mostly focused on St John. I'd love to sail to St Croix, mostly for the long sail. We'd stay only one night. Would it be worth it?
I've not heard many people focus on St Thomas when sailing the USVI. Is spending a night in Megans Bay highly recommended? !
Hard to answer your question on if the sail to St Croix is "worth it". If you like a great sail I would absolutely recommend it. If your crew on the other hand views the sailing part as simply a way to get to the next anchorage it's harder to recommend. One night is fine btw - we've done that before. Get an early start from Salt Pond (or next door bays). Count on about 4 hours (likely shorter). Enjoy the afternoon and evening exploring Christiansted waterfront area which is quaint. Megans Bay is a nice overnight anchor.
Life's short - sail more!
