Hawksnest Bay
✨ Hidden gem
Hawksnest Bay sits on St. John's scenic North Shore, putting you within easy dinghy range of one of the island's most beloved beaches and some solid snorkeling along the reef edges. You'll drop anchor in calm, protected water with the lush green hills of the Virgin Islands National Park rolling down behind the shoreline. It's a quieter alternative to the busier Cruz Bay area, while still keeping you close to the North Shore Road beaches and the national park trails just a short walk away.
