Like every beach in the US Virgin Island National Park, Honeymoon Beach is the stuff of postcards and Jimmy Buffet songs. The adventurous can hike to the beach from the Visitor's Center or, if feeling less rugged, can drive to a much closer point and walk down the hill. . Don't forget water, sunscreen, a decent sun hat and sunglasses. The snorkeling at the left end of the beach (facing out) is pretty rewarding. There were no facilities - there used to be, but all are currently out of commission. Rash guards are highly recommended.

Honeymoon Beach is an amazing beach on St. Thomas. The water is so blue and calm. You are able to just sit and watch the water and waves, while looking a blue clear water and St. John in the distance.

Calm, small beach in a boat harbor. Beach chairs, umbrellas for rent, bar conveniently on the sand. Appreciated the quiet waters, but felt a little claustrophobic and didn’t care for the fleet of sailboats moored there.

Gorgeous beach with soft sand and calm, crystal clear water. Surrounded by mountains, there’s a good mix of people on this beach - older folks, families, and young people. There’s a floating bar with shade in the water. The restaurant here, Dinghy’s, offers chairs and umbrellas, beach side food/drink service, boat tours, golf carts, kayaks, and legit anything else you could want. I wish I came earlier so I could’ve spent more time floating in the water.

We visited mid January. It was a gorgeous beach with full amenities from restrooms, restaurant, gift shop and water rentals. They also had chairs for rent. Amazing boats come in and out of the bay all day long. We hoped the 10 minute ferry over from St. Thomas and rented a golf cart to spend our day here. It was totally worth a day trip here.

Is there still transportation to Honeymoon Beach once you get off the water taxi?
Or do you have to walk or rent a golf cart?
We love it there but are 72 and 74 yrs old and not sure we can come if we have to walk
to the beach from water taxi.
Thank you so much

You can walk just over a small hill less than .25 miles to Rachel’s cart rental. Or you can ride the beach shuttle which runs daily many times.
My fiancé and I are thinking of heading out to honeymoon beach for the day. We want to rent chairs and an umbrella abs maybe a keep for the day. Can anyone help me with the prices for all these things?

I think it was about 10-15 dollars for the day. We rented two at Dingys but spent most of our time enjoying the water
Great beach well worth the day trip, enjoy

Interested in Honeymoon Beach, but photos show a lot of motorboats. Is this a quiet relaxing beach, or one with a lot of noise / exhaust pollution? Thank you in advance for your reply!

I didn't notice any noise/exhaust pollution when we were there in Oct. The sailboats are moored and quiet. A couple of speed boats came in near the restaurant but they come in slow with no wake/idle speed. If you're concerned about that just stay towards the right side of the beach.
I was thinking about purchasing the "Honeymoon Beach All Day Pass." Has anyone does this? What was your experience? Was the area crowded or more secluded? I know there is food/drinks onsite; will they bring drinks to you? For $49 per person, I just want to know what the environment is like. Any input is appreciated!

I didn’t think it was worth it but we did enjoy the kayaks. Mayonnaise a day when it isn’t so crowded you could enjoy more. They had 2 servers bringing drinks out but with so many people, they never got to us we had to go get our own.

Is there a less crowded day to go to Water Island than another? Just wondering how crowded the ferry will be.

It’s an actual taxi that runs back and forth every 15 minutes. Room for everyone.

Can you rent snorkel equipment at Honeymoon beach?

They were renting alot of water equipment, depends on who is there. Not the best place to snorkel.
Besides the ferry does it cost to get on to honeymoon beach?

We are going to be in St. Thomas and were thinking of taking our 11 year old and 14 year old to this WATER ISLAND @ Honeymoon Beach. What do you think? What is the best way to get from Disney Fantasy down to the beach?
Thanks in advance

So there is a ferry that runs from Crown Bay marina to water island. They have a shuttle that then takes you the short distance to honeymoon. There is a beach bar to the left that has free chairs and umbrellas.
The ferry at Crown Bay is right outside of a bar called Tickles Dockside Pub.

We are coming in on symphony of the seas in May. We want to make sure we don’t miss out on chairs and umbrellas. What time should we be there by? Do we take the Ferry over from the ship? Where is Dinghys located ?

IF you are getting off a cruise ship, you will need to take a taxi to the "Tickles" restaurant at Crown Bay. The ferry stop is in front of the restaurant (10 feet) door. Ferry takes 15 minutes, then a open air bus ride to the beach, 5-10 minutes depending on the wait. You should be able to find chairs relatively easy, or bring a towel and sit on the clean beach. Just make sure to leave enough time to get back to the Ship, as the traffic into town can be a nightmare after 3 PM.
