Water Island of US Virgin Islands - Honeymoon Beach

Water Island is the smallest and the newest of the inhabited US Virgin Islands in the Caribbean, after Saint Thomas, Saint John and Saint Croix. According to the census from 2000, the population of Water Island is 161. Being less than 500 acres in size and overshadowed by its bigger brothers, Water Island doesn’t get as much traffic making it a tranquil getaway destination.

You can get to Water Island from Crown Bay in Saint Thomas, USVI by a ferry. There is one beach on Water Island called the Honeymoon Beach. Thanks to island’s remoteness, the beach is never overcrowded and is likely to be deserted giving you the feeling of being on your own private beach. I have personally rode a speed boat by Water Island but never actually physically stopped to enjoy the tranquility. I’m surely heading that way on my next trip to the Caribbean Sea.
