If you’re into snorkelling, Watermelon Cay is a must, and you’ve got a good chance of spotting turtles and eagle rays on trips around the island. The calm, clear waters are also great for sailing, kayaking, or even a bit of water-skiing if you’re feeling adventurous. Away from the shoreline, two-thirds of the island is protected national parkland, hiding remnants of its Danish colonial past. You can wander the ruins of old sugar mills and cotton plantations, with Annaberg Sugar Plantation offering a fascinating glimpse into St John’s history. Hikers will love the island’s lush forests and trails, especially the Reef Bay Trail, where birdwatching, ancient petroglyphs, and long-forgotten sugar mills make every step an adventure. Whether you’re here to unwind on the sand or explore its wild, untamed side, St John serves up a nature-filled Caribbean escape you won’t forget.
