A powder-white park beach on the Caneel peninsula with calm turquoise water, rays and turtles on the reef edges, and full beach-club service.
Practical
Position is the GNIS point for Honeymoon Beach (St John; not to be confused with Honeymoon Beach on Water Island, St Thomas). Access by Lind Point Trail, the Caneel Bay Beach Club shuttle, or boat. A green dinghy tether (two round green buoys joined by a floating line, dinghies 16 ft and under) is provided; vessels up to 60 ft may use the marked Honeymoon dinghy channel to drop passengers, one boat at a time, then must leave the swim area (Compendium 2026). Restrooms and showers; snorkel the rocky points at either end (island guide, NPS). Popular with St Thomas day-sail boats, so arrive early or late.
