The gift shop at Cruz Bay Landing is located beside its coffee shop & creamery.
A great new gift shop just opened in Cruz Bay, and I think you all will find something you love inside.
Cruz Bay Landing recently expanded and now has a full gift shop beside its coffee shop and creamery. The gift shop is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week. Cruz Bay Landing, the restaurant, serves breakfast. lunch and dinner daily from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Cruz Bay Landing’s gift shop features several great items like custom t-shirts, polos, golf shirts, and rash guards, Stanley insulated cups, golf balls, St. John cutting boards, and more. Take a look at a few pics I took yesterday afternoon:
It looks great, doesn’t it? And did you notice that the Home shirt is back?! That design hasn’t been available since before the storms. I don’t know about you, but I’m happy to see it for sale, once again!
Cruz Bay Landing is located across from the ferry dock in Cruz Bay. Check out our searchable restaurant map at www.explorestj.com/restaurantmap to see its location and the location of all of our restaurants here on St. John.

It looks like it’s starting to get rather chilly up north, so I thought I would do my best to warm you up today. I took this video at Cinnamon Bay beach yesterday morning. The temperature was a lovely 84 degrees. It was yet another sunny day with very few clouds. Enjoy!

Hello everyone, and happy Wednesday! There is a brand new bar and grill on St. John, and today I am going to tell you all about it!
Mid Way Cafe & Grill opened recently on Centerline Road, which is Route 10 on the map. It is located at the Mid Way gas and grocery store complex, which is about three miles from Cruz Bay and about five miles from Coral Bay. It’s a beautiful spot that includes a bar and a large dining area.
Mid Way Cafe & Grill is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner seven days a week. It has a robust menu and a full bar, which includes blended drinks. Check out the menus:
And here are some pictures from inside the restaurant:
It looks great, doesn’t it?
Another great feature here is parking. It can be hard finding a spot when you’re looking to eat in Cruz Bay, so it’s nice to have another new option outside of town. Mid Way Cafe & Grill joins Coco Jims, Heading East, Flavours Nightclub, Shambles, Windmill and Tony’s Truck as options outside of Cruz Bay on Centerline Road. All are located between miles two and three.

Hello everyone, and happy Giving Tuesday! Today I would like to tell you about an amazing raffle that’s happening right now. But time is of the essence on this one, because it ends today at 3 p.m. EST. The great part about that, however, is that the winners will be pulled today at 4 p.m. EST. So you will know pretty quickly if you need to start shopping for airfare!
Love City Strong’s annual Island Gems raffle features three amazing prizes. Each prize has its own ticket, so you get to choose which prize you’d like to be entered for. Here are the details on each of the three prizes…
The Emerald Ticket
Cruz On Inn is located directly on Great Cruz Bay.
The Emerald Ticket features a one-week stay at Cruz On Inn, a 5 bedroom luxury villa in Chocolate Hole, as well as a discounted rental from Slim Man’s Jeep Rental. Activities include a cabana day at Lovango Resort & Beach Club and a half-day charter with Rock ‘n Rolla Charters, plus gift certificates to Sam & Jack’s Deli, High Tide Seafood Bar & Grill, Morgan’s Mango, Tap Room Brewtique, and Lulee St John.
The Sapphire Ticket
The cottages at Cinnamon Bay are located steps from this beautiful, sandy beach.
For the adventurous vacationer, the Sapphire Ticket package offers a one-week stay in a cottage at Cinnamon Bay, a dinghy rental from Wharfside Watersports, an outing on Salt Deck, and gift certificates to Trunk Bay Concession, Dazey Drive In, The Windmill Bar, Golden Hour, and Virginabis.
The Ruby Ticket
The view from Wharfside Hotel
If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, the Ruby Ticket package is for you. Featuring a five-night stay at Wharfside Village Hotel, a sunset sail with Cruz Bay Watersports, a day at Caneel Bay Beach Club, plus gift certificates to The Wine Shop, The Terrace, The Tap Room, Freebird, and The Little Things.
Raffle tickets start at just $10. You can get 10 entries for $10, 30 entries for $25, 75 entries for $50, 200 entries for $100 or 1,500 for $500.
All of the funds raised from this raffle will support the Resilient Housing Initiative, which was originally launched in 2018 in response to damages from Hurricanes Irma and Maria. In partnership with other organizations, St. John businesses, and local contractors, this program has completed 37 full rebuilds here on St. John, which is pretty incredible. The COVID-19 pandemic put even more strain on resources, and we saw prices of shipping and materials rise. In response to the changing needs of the island, Love City Strong expanded its program to include smaller repair projects. The objective is to mitigate damage from future impacts and make homes more safe and accessible for residents.
Again, this raffle ends today at 3 p.m. EST, so go ahead and purchase your tickets! You can do so using the link below:
A floating pizza boat? Yes, please! (Image credit: Pizza Pi)
Anyone who knows me knows how much I love pizza. Honestly, I could eat it every day of the week if calories didn’t matter! So today, I am super excited to tell you all that one of my favorite spots on the water recently reopened for the season, and it’s better than ever!
Pizza Pi reopened last week over in Christmas Cove after being closed for off-season. Pizza Pi is the Caribbean’s only floating pizza place, perhaps the world’s only floating pizza place! It’s a pretty cool concept, and the pizza itself is delicious. And even better – it’s located in a picturesque bay that’s pretty close to Cruz Bay.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Christmas Cove, it’s located behind Great St. James, which is a small island located southwest of Cruz Bay. It’s roughly a 15-minute or so boat ride from Cruz Bay, depending on the waves. You can only access Pizza Pi by the water.
Pizza Pi has been open since 2014. It sold earlier this year, and the new owners have made some exciting new changes this year. For starters, they have a brand new menu that now includes a Caesar salad and frozen drinks like a Bushwacker, Pina Colada, and more.
But perhaps the best change is that they now have floats for guests to hang out on, much like our friends over at Lime Out in Coral Bay. Eating pizza while lounging in the beautiful Caribbean Sea certainly sounds amazing to me!
New floats! (Image credit: Pizza Pi)
Pizza Pi is open from 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. seven days a week. There are numerous boat charters that can take you there, however here are a few that we recommend…
