Magens Bay
N. Beach Magens Bay is the most famous beach on St. Thomas (and possibly the entire Virgin Islands archipelago). So, here's our own poetic remark: This beach on the Virgin Islands' north coast has the potential to be the most photogenic and swimmable. However, years of positive reinforcement have resulted in a surge in popularity among tourists who are more than willing to pay the entrance fee to experience Magens' allure.
Previous visitors to the beach have only good things to say about it. They found very little to criticize, from the white sands to the pristine waters to the breathtaking views. St John's Rd
You can visit Magens any day of the week, but expect to pay around $5 per adult; children under the age of 12 are admitted for free. Visit in the early morning or late afternoon for the most privacy, but before the evening gnats arrive to bite.
