Though it is the smallest of the three main U.S. Virgin Islands, St. John’s unspoiled beauty is perhaps the greatest found anywhere in the Caribbean.

With two-thirds of the island designated as a national park, St. John has some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, like the much-beloved Trunk Bay. This beach is renowned for its crystal sands and underwater nature trail, and it is just one of the many memorable beaches on St. John.

St. Thomas

St. Thomas is the most cosmopolitan island, yet it still retains the distinctive atmosphere of a Caribbean paradise. For families or couples, St. Thomas is packed with opportunities for smiles and surprise.

There is plenty of spectacular diving and world-class dining. Enjoy the island’s picture-perfect beaches and if you’re interested in culture and history, don’t miss seeing the second-oldest synagogue in the Western Hemisphere.

Thrill-Seeking Adventures

There are more than 60 dive sites scattered throughout the U.S. Virgin Islands. These dives range from novice to expert and can take you to beautiful coral reefs, mangroves, and the remains of several Navy barges sunk after WWII. See octopus, seahorses, frogfish, and batfish during a pier dive at night.

Hike through history along National Park trails, go off-roading in a jeep, ziplining, kayaking or horseback riding. Explore tide pools, go windsurfing or spend some time snorkeling with sea turtles.

Family Fun

Hang out and play on one of our world-renowned beaches like Trunk Bay on St. John, Magens Bay on St. Thomas or Sandy Point on St. Croix. Take the kids to Coral World Ocean Park on St. Thomas where they can swim with sea lions, snuba, or have up-close encounters with sea turtles and dolphins.

After relaxing at the beach, go for a hike as a family in the national park on St. John or take them to ride the zipline on St. Thomas. Visit Fort Christiansvaern in St. Croix to learn about the islands’ diverse history or explore the botanical gardens on St. Croix and St. Thomas to learn about the local flora and fauna.

Find Peace of Mind

Turquoise waters surround St. John, St. Thomas and St. Croix, all of which offer different energies to help you unwind and relax. Enjoy swimming in warm waters that stay around 80 F (26 C) all year round or lay out on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.

The U.S. Virgin Islands contains many unique ways for you to slow your pace and immerse yourself in the richness of island life. Tour a distillery or shop in the quaint districts along the water’s edge. If you love feeling the wind in your hair and the sun on your face, then charter a schooner or ketch and watch the sunset over the water.
