St. John Beach Guide is both a guide and coffee table book, combining the stunning photos of award-winning photographers, Don Hebert and Steve Simonsen, with a complete guide to everything you'll want to know about the most beautiful beaches in the world, the beaches of the St. John, Virgin Island National Park.
What a fabulous book! The photos alone make the book worth buying but the text (including directions) make it an indispensable beach guide for a trip to St. John. I bought this book the week before we went and spent the plane ride mesmerized by it!
A St. John must!

I was referred this book by the manager of the b & b I was staying in st. john and I loved it! I would read it during breakfast every day to determine which beach I would go to that day. I chose to explore beaches I would never have even thought of if it weren't for the book. It is a St. John must, especially if you love beaches. Enjoy the sun!
Outstanding!

For anyone that enjoys the beauty of pristine beaches, but is confused in which to choose, this book offers page after page photos along with descriptions of in and out of water conditions, along with directions to locations.As a five time visitor to St. John, I now realize how narrow my spectrum has been, and intend to explore the many before missed charms of St. John.I enjoyed this beach so much, that I purchased two additional ones as gifts for friends. If you are planning to visit St. John or are trying to decide which island to choose, this book is a must.
THE DEFINITIVE GUIDE TO ST. JOHN'S BEACHES.

You should definitely try to buy this book before your trip to St. John. It contains info on 40 different beaches and snorkeling sites that you won't find anywhere else. By using it I located a short trail that led me to the most breathtaking and secluded beach I've ever seen. It was unbelievable! I never would have known about it without this book. While some of the same information on the beaches can be found interspersed in Singer's "St. John Off the Beaten Track," it's much easier to bring this smaller, more concise guide with you when you're actually looking for the beaches. I highly recommend both books if you can get them. Have fun in St. John!

I purchased this book on our 2nd trip to St John, and it is by far, the only and best book describing the 52 beaches in St. John -- including how to get there, some tips, walking conditions (some are hard to get to), quality of snorkeling, etc. We found some wonderful, private beaches - my copy is so dogearred, water stained, I might have to buy another one for your trip this year!
