Maho Bay, St.John By. BEACH WEATHER

ST. JOHN — One of the USVI's most beautiful beaches has landed on Tripadvisor's Top 25 beaches in the world. 

Coming in at 18, the spot, Maho Bay, was described by a visitor on Tripadvisor as a "beautiful beach with clear water." This visitor "swam with a sea turtle and came ashore to sunbathe with an iguana.”

Below, some more quotes from travelers about Maho Beach, according to Tripadvisor:

"After the storms, this great beach was crushed. Well it is back and just as special as ever. Great snorkeling, swimming and just straight up chilling. I will say they have all kinds of things across the street that look interesting," wrote a visitor.

Another visitor wrote, "This beach is beautiful and snorkeling was amazing - we saw sea turtles, octopus and a bunch of amazing fish!! Great family day!!" 

St. John Beach Guide says, "Maho Bay beach is a favorite among Islanders and tourists. Not only does it boast beautiful white sand and the shade of towering coconut palms – but it’s convenience makes it the perfect St John beach for families and kids."

The latest recognition is one of multiple the beach has received over the years.

In other positive news for the territory, last week the V.I Department of Tourism announced that members of the 30 million-strong global travel company, Travelzoo, rated the USVI as the number 1 destination they would visit in the Caribbean over the next two years.
