Anyone fished it?  Or gone diving there?

I have an opportunity to go there in January, and I would love some intel. 

It looks like there is a Hobie shop, but they say that they do not rent mirage drive boats :-/

I guess I will have to paddle.

I would much rather be up a creek without a paddle than down one.

We're all crying you a fat river in our collective IPA bro.

I was there in June for some diving. The diving is pretty good. Look up N2 Blue and dive the Fredriksted Pier at least once. You can even hunt lionfish as they are invasive species. Watch out for the spines as they are venomous. The inshore fishing is pretty bleak for anything because of all the locals fishing with nets, but the touring kayaking is worthwhile. Since the deep water is so close a big game trip is not necessarily an all day affair.
Relax. You'll live longer.
