its on st john and it has an awesome snorkeling trail... dont believe it has any beach bars but the water is beautiful and the whole area is what I beleive to be the cleanest beach I have ever been on... I believe it is part of the national forest so i am sure that is part of the reason for the cleanliness... keep in mind there are many many beautiful beaches on all of the islands

Water - awesome clean,

Snorkling - boring - way way better almost anywhere else on the island.

Not really BAR but you can get some pretty powerfull drinks/.

Beach - rated one of the top beachs in the world for beauty.

We stay in the Tradewinds cottage neat Rams Head. $1400 a week and totally awesome views - but you have to plan way ahead.

The BEST way is to stay away from the resorts and get a villa or cottage - much much cheaper.

Hello Adams,

There is a food/drink hut by the beach... no beach bars.

Lobster entree in a restaurant is usually $35-40.

There are size requirements for catching lobsters, can't snare little ones. The ones sold are usually a nice size, however in restaurants I've gotten both a good size lobster tail and sometimes they have seemed small compared to the price.
