Things To Do
Magens Bay Beach
Consistently ranked as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. It’s a stunning, one-mile stretch of white sand with incredibly calm, pool-like water, perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, or floating with a cocktail from the beach bar. (Note: There is a small $5–$7 entry fee per person).
Coki Beach
If you are looking for vibrant energy and fantastic walk-in snorkeling, this is the spot. The water is crystal clear, and you can buy dog biscuits from local vendors to feed the hundreds of colorful tropical fish that will swim right up to you.
Coral World Ocean Park
Located right next to Coki Beach, this marine park is great for all ages. It features an underwater observatory tower, touch pools, and unique interactive experiences where you can swim with sea lions or dolphins.
Sapphire Beach
Located on the East End, this beach offers stunning views of neighboring islands, great windsurfing, a lively beach bar, and excellent snorkeling right off the shore.
Mountain Top
Perched 1,500 feet above sea level at the highest point of St. Thomas, Mountain Top offers a massive duty-free shopping bazaar and an observation deck with a breathtaking panoramic view of Magens Bay and the British Virgin Islands. It is also the legendary home of the world's first Banana Daiquiri - a must-try!
Skyride to Paradise Point
Located near the cruise port in Charlotte Amalie, this fun cable car takes you up the mountainside. At the top, you can enjoy a spectacular view of the harbor while sipping a signature Bushwacker (the island's famous adult milkshake cocktail).
Mangrove Lagoon
Book a guided kayak tour on the south side of the island. You’ll kayak through protected, winding mangrove paths, snorkel through clear waters to look for stingrays, and hike the remote, uninhabited islet of Cas Cay to see tidal pools and a natural marine blowhole.
Red Hook
Located on the East End, this lively strip is the hub for nightlife and dining. It’s packed with great restaurants, sports bars, and live music spots, making it the perfect place to grab dinner and hop around after the sun goes down.
Frenchtown
A small, historic fishing village just outside of Charlotte Amalie that has evolved into a fantastic culinary neighborhood. It’s home to some of the best high-end dining, seafood spots, and cozy wine bars on the island.
Charlotte Amalie
For history buffs and shoppers, downtown Charlotte Amalie is filled with Danish colonial architecture and cobblestone alleys. Walk past Fort Christian (the oldest standing structure in the USVI), climb the famous 99 Steps built by Danish sailors in the 1700s, or shop duty-free for jewelry and local crafts on Main Street.
Saint John
Take the Ferry to St. John: Only a 20-minute ferry ride from Red Hook (on the East End of St. Thomas), St. John is a must-do. About two-thirds of the island is a protected National Park. Grab an open-air safari taxi from the ferry dock and head straight to Trunk Bay to swim its famous underwater snorkeling trail, or Maho Bay to swim with wild sea turtles. End your afternoon shopping and drinking "Painkillers" in the charming town of Cruz Bay. Book a Private Boat Charter: For a truly unforgettable group experience, charter a catamaran or powerboat for the day. Island-hopping charters will take you to secluded reefs, uninhabited cays, and hidden swim spots that you can't access by land. Water Island & Honeymoon Beach: Catch a quick 10-minute ferry from Crown Bay to Water Island, the smallest of the USVI. Rent a golf cart, head to Honeymoon Beach, grab a beach chair, and relax at Dinghy’s Beach Bar. It has a super laid-back, old-school Caribbean vibe.
