Salomon Beach - Solomon Beach (St. Jhon´s)

Is a secluded hideaway that is accessed by boat or a short hike starting behind the new National Park Visitor Center.  The snorkeling is beautiful along the rocky points of this beach. The hiking trail also continues to Honeymoon Beach, one of the seven famous beaches of St. John´s Caneel Bay.

Magen´s Beach (St. Thomas)

 Is heart shaped and is approximately 1 mile long. The bottom is sandy and slopes gently down.  With the exception of a few weeks a year when the prevailing northeast winds shift to the west, the are no waves or currents at Magens Beach.  While there is plenty of beach to sun on, there are also plenty of shaded areas under the trees.  Life Guard service is provided from 6 AM to 6 PM Monday through Sunday year round.  On the southern and northern ends of the beach are rock formations in the water that provide good snorkeling.

Turtle Beach (St. Croix) 

Is located on Buck Island which was declared a national Monument by President Kennedy.  It is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the entire Caribbean.  You can access this beach by taking one of the many charter sail boats that visit the island each day. Be sure to visit the island´s under-water snorkeling trail.
