Cane Bay Beach - The Best Beach on St. Croix

Cane Bay is the best beach on St. Croix. Why? It ranks best with sunbathers, snorkel enthusiasts, for walking, and is a perfect "kids" beach. Pictures don't do it justice.

You can easily reach Cane Bay Beach from the main road. Parking is ample. You'll share this beauty of a beach with world class scuba divers. Divers come from all over the world to experience what lies a few hundred yards offshore - "The Cane Bay Wall".

The Cane Bay Wall is where the ocean floor simply plunges to over 10,000 feet in a matter of yards. Look down and you'll only see the sun glints as they are swallowed by the sheer darkness. But the beauty is in the wall of coral that hugs Cane Bay. It is simply one of the best dives in the world.

But back to the beach!

Spend the day at Cane Bay Beach, or just the afternoon, but make sure you are here for the sunset. And you will have no problem finding a great place to hang out, munch on some snack food and take God's handiwork. You can come back tomorrow and start the whole experience over again. Yes, it's "that" good.

Note, there's another Cane Bay Beach in Tortola.  While you're in the Caribbean, you could check that one out or just view our review.

Best Beaches on St. Croix

You don't need a personal invitation to visit St. Croix, but that's just what the beautiful palm-lined, sun-kissed beaches do. Spend a few hours or spend the day, these miles of white golden sand and turquoise waters offer an enticing way to relax or to brush up on your snorkeling or diving.

But that's not all. The many trails on St. Croix that weave along the shore and through the hillsides will make you wonder why you've never visited before.

Most of the beaches have full-service facilities. Some are very secluded. No matter your taste, you will certainly find one that suits you.

	Protestant Cay - Located just off the shore from Christiansted, a short ferry ride to paradise in St. Croix.
	Buck Island Reef National Monument Beach - Just 1.5 miles off the northeast coast of St. Croix, the National Monument is 880 acres of land and pristine water. Sunken slave ships make this a historical site.
	Cane Bay Beach - Dive? You may know Cane Bay Wall. But swimmers are in for a treat. Nice clear water, beautiful reef. Time for a Caribbean vacation!
