Welcome to St. John

St. John has fabulous snorkeling, diving, and hiking. The snorkeling is among the best in the Caribbean. Since two-thirds of the island is National Park, many beaches have amenities but no developments mar the expanse of sand and palms. From St. John, it is easy to take day trips to visit other islands such as the popular yachting destinations of Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, Virgin Gorda, Peter, and Norman Islands.

The Park Service also offers snorkeling tours, hikes, birding tours, sails, archaeological digs, and lectures. Numerous park trials lead to stone ruins of old sugar mills and plantations, petroglyphs, and even waterfalls if rainfall is plentiful.

How to Visit St. John

St. John is reached by a 20 minute ferry ride from Red Hook and a 45 minute ferry ride from downtown Charlotte Amalie. St. Thomas is primarily serviced by Delta, American, US Air, United and Continental Airlines from the states.
