Afternoon in St. Thomas

Hello fellow cruisers! My family and I are cruising on harmony of the sea on June 30th. This is our first time bringing our kids along (8 and 4 years old). Typically, when in St. Thomas, we head over to St. John and spend the day there. We are scheduled to be in port from 12pm to 8pm which I found odd. Since we are getting there so late, St John really isn’t an option for us, this time. We are looking for a nice beach where my 8 year old and I can enjoy good snorkeling while my 4 year old enjoys time playing on the beach. I worry that by the time we get off the boat, the beaches will be crowded. I have done some searching and it seems like sapphire beach might be nice for us. Any advice you have would be great!

I haven’t been to sapphire...I love the beaches on St. John!  We did Magen’s bay which was beautiful and calm but I’m not a snorkels so I have no idea how that is.  Have a great trip!  Jane

Thank you! We also love St. John. We want to be back in time for dinner on the boat so at 12pm arrival is keeping us from going there this time. I have also hear great things about Magen’s bay but have read it’s not great snorkeling. Thanks so much for your response!
