Magens Bay - St Thomas

5.0
Magens Bay, Northside, St Thomas, US Virgin Islands 00802, Virgin Islands

Located on the North (Atlantic) side of the island, Magens Bay (Estate Zufriedenheit) features a well-protected white sand beach stretching for nearly three quarters of a mile. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations on the island.

The beach sits at the head of a deep bay, the arms of which are Peterborg peninsula to the east and Tropaco Point to the west. The bay's northwest exposure means its waters are usually calm, although storms in the North Atlantic can occasionally generate large waves in the winter months. The sandy bottom means snorkeling is of limited interest, although turtles, conch, tarponand other fish are commonly spotted. Local fishing boats anchor in the eastern part of the bay where there is a boat ramp. 

Magens Bay Authority services include lifeguards, parking, showers and bathrooms. There is a snack counter, bar and souvenir shop. Beach chairs, floats, lounge chairs, mask and snorkels, fins, towels, lockers, paddleboards, kayaks, and paddleboats can be rented. The beach property also includes a coconut grove, a mangrove, and an arboretum. The beach is also host to many unique Events throughtout the year. Please check our Events page for the upcoming Season.
