Are there any places that still require that you wear masks? Flights between EWR and STT, ferries, stores, restaurants etc? Not sure if we need to bring them.

Quick answer is "No"...but always worth keeping a couple in carryon in case someplace suddenly requires them.

Ok, thanks. Good idea. We’ll bring a few just in case.

It's up to you, but I personally think it can't hurt to wear a mask on the plane and in lines at the airport, ferry, etc. After you arrive, most things are pretty well outside, but I would hate to catch something on the plane or the ferry.

Good point! We’ll bring a few masks and decide if we use them, depending on the situation.

Based on your photo, while a mask isn’t required it’s recommended when diving. 😎

Have a great trip!

Pre-covid on vacations I would always get sick on the way to destination always caribbean for some reason. I started wearing a mask only on the plane and started wiping everything down with wipes when seated and haven't gotten sick flying since. I think the most helpful part of wearing a mask is stopping you from always touching around your mouth and nose.

The BVI is too wonderful to waste from getting COVID in transit. Wearing a mask at all airports and on all planes is a minor price to pay to be able to fully enjoy your vacation. Enjoy!

Tested positive for COVID while there. Glad I had masks.
