St Thomas in the USVI has a nice mountain past the end of the runway that you have to clear on takeoff and it makes the climb out a little interesting.

St. Maarten is a trip to fly into as is St Thomas. Water keeps getting closer to the plane and closer and closer and then bang you hit the runway and the thrust reverser at about the same time.

St. Barts is another fun filled landing. Come over a mountain and then a very sharp almost dive to the runway. No big planes allowed here.
