Breathtaking bay, often voted the most beautiful in the Virgin Islands, with perfectly white powdery sand, swaying coconut palms, a gently shelving swimming area and great snorkelling in the St John Virgin Islands National Park. Heart shaped and a quarter mile long, with clear turquoise water, the beach was bought by Nelson Rockefeller and donated to the National Park, which he helped set up.

This is an incredible place

Part of the USVI National Park

Lots of things to do

Local beach rentals and food services yucked back into the woods and off the beach

Truly one of the most beautiful places on Earth
