Gorgeous beach on the East End in Coral Bay. Beautiful waters and a massive shelf that the sea life congregates on. Great for swimming, snorkeling, or just lounging on the sandy shore.

Hansen is a beautiful east end beach with fantastic snorkeling and breathtaking views. They have paddle boards, kayaks, floats, canopies, picnic tables, and lounge chairs just a donation.

This private beach on St. John's East End is the one of the only dog-friendly beaches on the island. Reef2Peak operates out of Hansen Bay renting kayaks and SUP boards as well as giving tours. Vital Free Dive also operates from here.

The beach offers a very calm bay with excellent snorkeling, turtles, stingrays and an array of assorted fish. Food Truck and clean bathrooms available along with ample parking.

More remote but close to cottage. Park at Hansen Bay beach lot- just past where the road splits around an ancient boxwood tree. Great seas grass beds. Good spot to spot turtles.
