Trunk Bay is one of St. John's most picturesque beaches, and a popular
spot for snorkeling. A 225-yard trail with underwater signage is
especially good for beginners. It is the beach of choice for cruise-ship
passengers who opt for the snorkel tour, so you may want to check
cruise-ship listings in the local publication St. Thomas This
Week to avoid the most crowded days. Further offshore are shallow
reefs that attract fish and divers alike.
Surfboards and sailboats are often found at Cinnamon Bay, where the surf tends to be stronger. The long, white sand beach is flanked by a national park campground. The campground has showers, bathrooms, restaurants and a gift shop that are open to the public, as well as a museum highlighting a recent archaeological excavation of a native Arawak site near the beach.
Drive along the roads of St. John and you'll be presented with many beautiful panoramas, such as this bird's eye view of Maho Bay and Francis Bay on the north coast.
