Caribbean Moment: On the Beach in St Thomas

By: Guy Britton - March 26, 2021

There are few more spectacular stretches of sand anywhere in the Caribbean than Magens Bay, the renowned white-sand crescent on St Thomas in the US Virgin Islands.

But St Thomas is blessed with a host of magnificent beaches, whether you’re at Magens or lesser-known coasts like Muller Bay on the eastern corner of the island. 

The latest Caribbean Moment takes you to three of them: the blindingly white sands of Magens Bay, the endlessly calm waters of Hull Bay on the northern edge of St Thomas; the serenity of Brewers Bay; the tucked-away waves of Muller Bay. 

Whether you’re still at home or back traveling the Caribbean, it’s the perfect moment of what we’re all looking for right now. 

See more in the latest Caribbean Moment.
