America's Caribbean — postcard beaches with no currency exchange
St. Thomas is the star of almost every Eastern Caribbean cruise. As part of the US Virgin Islands it uses the US dollar, and its harbour town of Charlotte Amalie is famous for duty-free shopping. Add Magens Bay — regularly named one of the world's most beautiful beaches — and a quick ferry to unspoiled St. John, and it's easy to fill a perfect day.
