Grapetree Beach & East End Bar

17° 44.8′ N · 64° 35.6′ W

A long, quiet, reef-protected beach on the south shore of the East End, facing the sunrise, with a casual bar at the Grapetree Bay Hotel.

Practical

Coordinate from GoToStCroix's beach listing (East End Bar at 17.7473 N, 64.5912 W). Grassy bottom, so fewer reef fish but a good chance of sea turtles. Residential area: be respectful. East End Bar serves dinner daily 3 pm to 9 pm with happy hour 3 pm to 5 pm and live Caribbean music Thursday to Saturday (GoToStCroix).

Best for

A south-shore swim and sundowner by car
