St John is nice, but I'm in no hurry to go back. It's a little Americanized for me. I like the beaches, but there are other places with great beaches, too. And last time I was there, there was a shooting over at Trunk Bay about a week before we arrived. Not as bad as the crime on St. Thomas, but keep your belongings in your site when you're at the more secluded beaches where the tree line is really close to the water. There's a lot more property crime than you'd expect from a place that's considered a laid back tropical paradise.
If you really want to check out something quiet and relaxing besides Turks and Cacos, look into Virgin Gorda. Would have been the best vacation I ever had if I wasn't with a crazy bitch.
