After hearing that it had the best snorkeling on St. John, we decided to give it a shot. We were not disappointed. It's a hike over a rocky path, there's really no beach - and literally minimal sand, but once in the water, the snorkeling is fabulous. We saw schools of blue tang, Sargent majors, grunts, etc. Not just 10 or 15 - but 60 to 100. I've never seen so many! We saw a rather large (IMHO) barracuda. The coral was bright and healthy - I perhaps this beach doesn't get many tourists as it's not an easy place to reach - nor does it have easy water access. But it you want to see incredible underwater scenery - you want to go to Leinster Bay. Then drive over to Coral Bay for pizza at the Donkey Diner - or a great burger at Skinny Legs. It's a perfect Island day.
