St. John is known for having some of the most beautiful beaches in the Virgin Islands. Often someone will say they’ve been to such-and-such beach and even a veteran visitor will wonder, ‘Where’s that?’
On the Virgin Islands On Line travel forum, "Sherban" offered some answers, using Google Maps. Click here to go to his guide. It includes 19 beaches, 17 on the north shore and two on the south shore.
You can also use the map to get around the island. Click on a "Show Labels" option in the upper right hand corner and you’ll see the island categorized by estate names. (Handy for real estate shoppers.) Zoom in and you’ll get street names to help you get to the beaches, your villa, shopping, and restaurants
