10Best Says

This narrow, white sand beach is quite private, which makes it worth the drive from Christiansted. Palm trees provide shade for beach bunnies, while not-so-tranquil waters offer some of the island's best snorkeling and diving. Roughly ¼ mile offshore, the ocean floor quickly drops 1000 feet – a feature which gives rise to what scuba divers call "jumping off the wall." Local restaurants provide refreshments.
