Review & FAQ:
Maho Beach is located along the shores of Maho Bay on St. John Island in the U.S. Virgin Islands. This Caribbean beauty is prized by islanders and tourists alike for its glistening white sand, and coconut palm shaded areas. This narrow beach is perfect for families with kids. There is plenty of both sun and shade on the beach, the surf is light, and the water entry is shallow.
The ocean bottom is sandy for at least 20 yards out, making it a great place for swimming, floating, wading, or just hanging out. The shallow shoreline sets the perfect conditions for sandcastle building. Maho Beach Cruz Bay, St. John Map
