Okay, so I’ve been dreaming of a beach vacation, and St. Thomas kept popping up in my searches. I decided, “Let’s do this!” So I started my research, and man, was it a journey!

First Steps: Gathering Intel
First, I googled “best beaches in St. Thomas.” A ton of websites and blogs came up. I spent a good few hours just scrolling through articles and pictures, it was a bit of information overload, to be honest.
Narrowing it Down
I realized I needed a more focused approach. I started making a list of the beaches that kept appearing. It felt like every site mentioned Magens Bay, Coki Point, and Sapphire Beach. These were definitely going on the “must-see” list.
- Magens Bay: Everyone raved about its calm, clear water and the long, sandy stretch.
- Coki Point: Seemed like the place to be for snorkeling, with lots of fish and coral.
- Sapphire Beach: This one looked amazing for watersports, with windsurfing and kayaking.
Digging Deeper
But I didn’t just want the popular spots. I wanted to find some hidden gems, too. So I started looking at forums and travel blogs where people shared their personal experiences. I stumbled upon some mentions of Lindquist Beach and Secret Harbour. These sounded less crowded and more “local,” which I liked.
Making My Choice
After all that researching, comparing, and list-making. Lindquist and Coki Point were my favor,I finally decided on the spot, it was a good desicion and the trip went well.
I went with a mix of popular and less-known beaches.

I spent a few days just soaking up the sun, swimming in the turquoise water, and trying some snorkeling. It was exactly the escape I needed!
