nights... gotta' keep on dancing! Whether you are in St. John or St. Thomas,
stop off in Duffy's Love Shack and shake your groove thing to tunes
of the 70s and 80s. Sip on toy filled drinks with names such as "The Volcano"
and "Painkiller." The gyrating bodies and island charm of Duffy's is definitely
infectious. Don't even think of an early a.m. appointment other than sleeping
on the beach.

Few
bars in St. Thomas serve drinks with toy sharks in them. Fewer still serve
drinks with toy skeletons stuffed in the toy sharks. Duffy's Love Shack
lives by such quirky comical touches. The already unusual bar throws plastic
curiosities at its customers, adorning their necks with fake leis, their
shot glasses with tiny monkeys and their drinks with clip-on moustaches.

Readers
nominated Duffy's Love Shack as their favorite watering hole in the Caribbean
. Based on the reports of our readers, the Love Shack seems to have a
combination of Halloween and Mardi Gras almost every night. An Israeli
dentist wrote that he was "dancing on top of a tank" . Another reader
. . . "dressed up like pirates and drank from coconuts for days."

From
the bamboo-handled menus to the theme parties (Nerd Night is our favorite),
Duffy's is F-U-N from the get-go. Don't miss trying one of the huge tropical
concoctions like "Revenge of Godzilla", a 32oz monster of vodka and fruit
juices that may just have you believing you're in Tokyo by the end of
