One of St. Thomas' newest attractions, Tree Limin' Extreme consists of a series of eight cables and two rope bridges that crisscross down verdant St. Peter Mountain, one of the island's highest peaks. Visitors cop stunning views across the Caribbean Sea, with Magens Bay in the foreground and the islands of St. John, Tortola and Jost Van Dyke in the distance. The eighth and final zip line is the only "yo-yo" zip in the Caribbean: instead of a simple point-to-point ride, this type of zip line allows the rider to travel to the far end of the line, pause briefly, then yo-yo back to the middle of the line. The entire zip line tour takes about two-and-half to three hours.
