With so many spectacular beaches on St. John, Maho Bay Beach is everyone’s favorite: Crystal-clear waters, a powder-soft white beach surrounded by a 1,000-foot-high forested slope and fringed by stately coconut palm trees, lush tropical plants, and over 50 species of tropical birds. And in the water there are seagrass beds, green sea turtles, and magnificent thriving coral reefs. The surf is light and the entry into the water shallow, making the beach perfect for kids.
Snorkeling is spectacular and it is easy to spot rays and schools of fish. Corals and reef fish can be spotted along the western or eastern shorelines. Maho Bay Map
