Paradise Point, St. Thomas: One of the most touristy things to do in one of the Caribbean’s most touristy towns is to take the sky ride to the top of Paradise Point. Do it anyway. The gondola ride to the top of the 700-foot high point offers great views of Charlotte Amalie on the way up and down, the harbor filled with cruise ships and boats of every variety. And you can linger at the top as long as you like, sipping Bushwhacker cocktails made with Bailey’s Irish cream and drinking in the scenery.
