St Eustatius Top Things To See & Do
• Wander around the restored Old Town; walk up to The Quill, a dormant volcano surrounded by lush tropical rainforest; and visit the Miriam Schmidt Botanical Garden.
• Relax on many beautiful and unspoilt beaches with unusual layers of black and tan sand.
• Enjoy the island's superb scuba-diving opportunities. Many wrecks filled with marine life lie on the black sand amid coral reefs and near the submerged old port just off Oranjestad. Dive centres offer complete packages (PADI), courses and equipment hire.
• Hunt down the weed-choked Jewish Cemetery, which is connected to Synagogue Honen Dalim, the second-oldest synagogue in the New World.
• Take advantage of the warm and clear water and coral displays by going snorkelling.
• Go windsurfing or waterskiing; these and other watersports are well catered for on the island.
