We are looking for a 10th anniversary destination in the Caribbean. We went to the Bitter End Yacht Club in Virgin Gorda for our honeymoon and loved it are looking for something similar. Must be relaxed (no strict dress code) and have access to sail boats. Any suggestions? Anyone ever been to Jost Van Dyke?

Nothing to do on Jost...Soggy Dollar and Skinny Legs the only attractions. Great for a day sail destination, but I wouldn't stay there. If you stop in, look for my dad's license plate..(5-2 BAH) at Skinny Legs!

I loved Jost Van Dyke. I kept very busy between lying in a hammock, Foxies, the Soggy Dollar, over to Pussar's and the Bomba Shack on Tortola and day sails to the Indians and other little islands. Also rented a speedboat for the day and went to the Baths on Virgin Gorda for a picnic.

I've been going to islands farther and farther south because of the crowds but the USVIs and BVIs remain stunning.

Highly recommend it.

Oh - and don't forget Willie Thortons's floating barge bar, you have to take a dingy to get there but if you don't have one - swim!

That's the place where you get a free drink if you jump naked off the top, right?
