St. John Off the Beaten Track App

This easy to use app was developed by Gerald Singer, author of the best selling St. John books, St. John Off the Beaten Track, St. John Beach Guide and Tales of St. John and the Caribbean.

Now for the first time the information from Mr. Singer’s books, website, blogs archives and photographs have been put together in one extensive and comprehensive app.

When it comes to St. John information, there’s nothing out there that even comes close.
