Virgin Islands National Park

Featuring St. John USVI

Located on St John, the Virgin Islands National Park covers more than half of the island. The park preserves the history and natural beauty of the islands. Trails from pristine beaches lead to ruins of past civilizations. The most difficult time you will have is deciding how much time to spend exploring and how much time to relaxing at the beach.

Beyond the beach, the park includes submerged coral gardens and seascapes. White sand, clear blue water and abundant sealife make for fantastic snorkeling.

St John takes a long time to get to, so don't waste precious vacation time - use this GPS map to get to the places you want to see.

This GPS map of pinpoints some of the best places for skin diving in the Caribbean. I've also included points of interest to good eats, like Skinny Legs in Coral Bay; scenic areas, like overlooks and sugar mill ruins.
