Bathroom and changing facilities are available though in need of renovation. Park your car or jump out of a cab and walk no more than twenty yards through palm trees to your perfect blanket laying spot. Probably the best beach to access for anyone with physical conditions.
|
|
|
Salt Pond Bay
St. John
Secluded and beautiful. Great snorkeling, but a rather long down hill walk to reach beach. Bathroom facility, no showers. If you make it this far, then you're a true adventurous sort and shouldn't give up until you make the 2.2 mile hike out to the immense and stoic Ram's Head Point. Watch for wild goats.... generally will run from you and I haven't heard of any goat attacks before. This is a physically demanding trek, so take water, sunscreen and your meditation books. Definitely a place to ask the univeral questions about life and existence.
|
|
|
Trunk Bay
St. John
The most renown beach on the islands, and probably in the Caribbean. Certainly the most photographed and printed beach in the island magazines. This is probably due to its picture perfect view from North Shore Road. A combination of the underwater snorkeling trail, water sports kiosk, concession stand, excellent changing and bathroom facilities, and lifeguards on duty, make this a beach not to be missed. The only bummer is the National Park Service now charges a fee for entry, five dollars or so.
