Magens Bay is the most popular beach of
St. Thomas island in the Caribbean (entry $5 per person). Most of the passengers from cruise liners head here, so there are usually a lot of people during the daytime. However, the coastline is very long, so you can always find a relatively secluded spot. Hurricane Irma broked most of the trees in September 2017. But thanks to the hard work of locals, now the beach again looks beautiful. Shore and seabed: sand.

Hotels [edit]
There are no hotels right near Magens Bay. But there are a lot of accommodation options located a short distance from the coast, as well as in the north end of the bay. The average price tag is very high, but everything is expensive in the US Virgin Islands.
How to get there [edit]
Fly to
St. Thomas international airport (STT). Next get to Magens Bay by taxi or by minibus. Please note, that you don't have to ask the taxi driver to take you back, as there are a lot of taxis on the beach waiting for the tourists.
When to go [edit]
On the island of St. Thomas, you can relax any time of the year. Americans usually don't like the hurricane season (from June to October), but the weather is good most of that time.
