The engine settles into a steady growl as turquoise water peels away from the hull and the coast of St. Thomas drops into an open, sun-bright expanse. You’ll launch from a protected cove near Charlotte Amalie and feel the wind cut cool as the shoreline—steep green ridges and pastel rooftops—slides behind you. For a full hour the sea dares you: carve toward the north coast’s surfier swell or hug the calm south side to spy coral gardens.
