Dorothea Beach is perfect for those looking for a bit of adventure on St. Thomas. Located on the north coast of the island, the beach is not easy to find, what means you will probably have it to yourself. Beautiful and picturesque, Dorothea Beach is surrounded by lush green hills and tall palm trees. The coastline is rocky, with cobblestones and exposed coral. There is always a strong breeze and rough, dangerous surf. The strong surf and unexpected drop-offs make it not a good idea to come swimming or snorkeling at Dorothea Beach alone. There are no public restrooms or any other facilities, but there are restaurants and other businesses nearby if you need refreshments.
