If you only have one day in St. John, this simple itinerary will help you enjoy beaches, food, and scenic stops without rushing.
St. John is small, but there is plenty to explore in one day. This easy plan works well during busy months when crowds and traffic are higher.
Morning: Cruz Bay
Arrive early and get breakfast in town. Pick up anything you need for the day.
Local tip: Parking is limited, so arrive before the rush.
Mid-Morning: Trunk Bay or Cinnamon Bay
Both beaches offer calm water and beautiful scenery. Spend a few hours swimming and relaxing.
Lunch in Coral Bay
Head east for a quieter lunch. Coral Bay restaurants have a laid-back island feel and great views.
Afternoon: Maho Bay
Maho is ideal for spotting turtles. The water is shallow and perfect for floating.
Late Afternoon: Scenic Overlooks
Stop at a few overlooks along North Shore Road for quick photos and views.
Evening: Back to Cruz Bay
Finish your day with dinner in town before catching the ferry.
