The Virgin Islands are known for being a mecca for anyone wanting some time in the sand and surf. So as you make your vacation plans and research the area, our crew at St. John Car Rental urges you to check out a few of our favorite beach destinations.
1. Hawksnest Bay
The Hawksnest Bay Beach is located on the northwest side of the island and is a local favorite. Its soft sand and beautiful views make a perfect place to relax for the day. Note that you’ll want to arrive early to get the best sun.
