Hawksnest Bay Beach is located in Hawksnest Bay, on St John’s north shore. It is one of several popular beaches in the bay. It is fairly narrow, with soft white sand, and is edged with dense sea grapes that provide pleasant shade. Keep an eye on the tide, when it comes in the beach becomes very narrow strip.

Hawksnest can be reached from Cruz Bay on North Shore Road, and has a large parking lot on the left side of the road. Hawksnest is not as protected as many of the other St. John beaches because of its orientation, so be prepared for a bit of surf.
