Virgin Islands This Week: Attractions St. John

Attractions St. John

Few Caribbean Islands offer the spectacular areas for scuba diving, snorkeling, and all forms of watersports are available in the crystal clear waters surrounding St. John.

Diving
If you've been diving for years or are just getting into the sport, you've come to the right place. Learn more about diving on St. John.

Day Sails & Boat Charters
Rent a boat and island hop to neighboring islands and cays or enjoy a day of snorkeling, swimming, picnicking and relaxing aboard one of many day sail charter boats.

Watersports
From kayaking to windsurfing and kiteboarding to snuba diving, a cross between snorkeling and scuba diving.

Sportfishing
Many in the sportfishing industry credit Captain Johnny Harms with identifying the first fertile fishing grounds and introducing this exciting sport to the U.S. Virgin Islands. Well-equipped sportfishing charter boats are available offering full-day and half-day trips.

Explore the National Park
Enjoy a truly breathtaking view of the islands! See them from the domain of the frigate birds and the red-tailed hawks! Keep your eyes peeled and you may see turtles and stingrays swimming in the shallow, azure coastal waters. Fantastic photo opportunities!

Carolina Corral

340-693-5778 • CORAL BAY, ST. JOHN

A ride with the Carolina Corral offers you a unique view of the BVI without a passport. Horses for every skill level travel into the hills of St. John on country roads and trails culminating with a ride along the water. No beach. Some trot/canter allowed. The corral began in '93 with two formerly wild donkeys. Every animal at the corral was in need of a better home. Stop by the corral to visit with the donkeys, goats, sheep, chickens, "Ready or Not" the dog and our three friendly cats. Look for us in Coral Bay! (St. John island map)
