Came every day early, so we could beat the crowds… more relaxing and physically invigorating than we can ever describe. There was something healing about the sun, salt water, sounds, and more. We rediscovered the joy of living. I have had strokes, open heart surgeries… but these days, I felt great. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Virgin Islands National Park
Idyllic white-sand beaches and crystal clear seas draw many visitors to Virgin Islands National Park each year – and what waits underwater is just as breathtaking. The park includes 5,650 acres of land beneath the ocean, including fragile coral gardens, beautiful seascapes, and resplendent ocean life.
State(s): Virgin Islands
Established: 1956
