The
Wyndham Sugar Bay Resort & Spa just announced a new voluntourism experience that helps eco-conscious guests to give back on their next
Virgin Island vacation. For $79 per person, guests of the St. Thomas resort can experience nearby
Hassel Island along with tour operator
Virgin Islands Ecotours. The excursion begins with a 20-minute kayak paddle from
Charlotte Amalie Harbor over to the isle, where you'll have the chance to explore the ruins of a former British military garrison and other historic locations like the Creque Marine Railway, one of the Western Hemisphere's first steam-powered marine rail systems. Following a good dose of Caribbean history, you'll spend the afternoon beautifying the beaches of Hassel island – from collecting flotsam to trimming up hiking trails – then finish the day with some restorative beach time. Included in the package rate, you'll also get a free annual membership to the
Friends of the Virgin Islands National Park and St. Thomas Historical Trust. And if eco-tours are right up your alley, don't miss our recent
Day Trip on other
green tours you can try with
Virgin Islands Ecotours.
