Where the Movie Four Seasons was filmed!
Must be down, will not play!
Very serine!!!
Sounds like it wasn't too bad getting there in a day ! Awesome footage !!
Alguém veio parar aq por estar olhando os ventos do Google Earth?
Beautiful beach-can’t wait to go back...October 2021!!!
Haven't been on that beach in many years. But back in the 70's I would take my son and his friend there to camp over night for a get away. We lived on St Thomas. It was awesome. They had tents to rent. And a comosaire to get supplies. Also a little bar and snacks. They would even show a movie at night. I'm sure all that has changed now but it use to be great ! 🥰
That was a year ago! The beaches are all cleaned up now in 2021- there with my fam for the second time!
One of my favorite beaches...I have been several times and it’s ...crazy beautiful!!
Beautiful
I miss this place I'm definitely going back sad to see what happened to the visitors center.
Pitcher plant at the beginning of the trail? Nice video ! Thank you :)
@R Berry,,,,,totally in agreement with you! Once a amazing beach, and beach itself still amazing BUT where the hells the clean up!!!??? Jesus, I could have a crew of 3 people for couple weeks and have it fixed up, cleaned , rebuilt including snack bar. Been 3 years now!! WTF!! I get logistics are tougher on island and all that shit but what a disgrace. National park service must have shit ton of money for such things also.......get ur shit together St. John there’s a lot of other islands down there to visit if you don’t
Wonderful to remember.thank You.🌐🍀🇺🇸
We are looking at going here for vacation, is the island still in bad condition? Is it still worth going?
St John has been recovering very nicely and it is definitely worth visiting. Check out all of my videos to see for yourself and read my blog at www.stjohnescape.com.
dumb video
Post Irma video?
Yes.
Where is a good “area lto stay for first time there. Air b&b or major hotel? Also best time of year...warm but not the hottest time of year!
I would stay in Cruz Bay. The condos at Grande Bay are very convenient and nice. You could search for them on vrbo.com. We own a condo there and rent it out. Details at www.stjohnescape.com. Our favorite times to visit are Spring and Fall.
Beautiful video. Thank you!
Thanks and you’re welcome Ellie!!
St. John Escape at Grande Bay Hello there! We’re going there in June . How’s the beaches and the water? Thanks
Can’t wait to be there in a few months
It's sad what this beautiful beach has become. Although still beautiful the clean up from two years ago is so slow. What once was the coolest beach and become a scene from a time forgotten with the gutted out building and debris laying everywhere. I know they have started some clean up in the last few months but no work has been done after that. Such a waste.
Looks very nice
I love this! Great video!
Isn’t St. John gorgeous?!
Can't wait til April!!!
:( the palm tree is gone
This is NPS property that belonged to Oppenhiemer prior to his death. Gibney property is next door and is NOT a PUBLIC beach.
Video was 55 minutes too short. Gorgeous.
We visited earlier this year. The vegetation is definitely still recovering. Even with the damage to the palms we thought the beaches were still beautiful.
I MISS ST JOHN AND ALL THE FUN WE HAD ON ISLAND SALOMON BEACH AND FRANCIS BAY AND SALT POND SECULDED LOVE TO ALL
Hi There, My gf and i will be traveling to st john in aug and we were wondering what would be the best way to commute to the trail heads? - we will be riding the red hook ferry in the morning from St Thomas
You can take the open air taxis to many of the trailheads
Congratulations Nice Video 👍I am your member ... I love traveling. 😎 I would like it if you were one of my subscribers too. At the next Video 👍
Beautiful
i live in st.thomas and st.john
How is the safety on the islands? I hear theres been a bit of a crime spike recently.
YES. Thats exectly what I was talking about. Seems to be a general lack of info on that.
This person probably took two clips and called whole thing 2019,,,,,,BEWARE THE ISLAND BEACHES ARE STILL BEAUTIFUL BUT NO PALM TREES ON THEM 🤫🤫🤫
There's usually also nobody on Saint John.
We visited Cinnamon Beach this year and there was still quite a bit of damage there. We didnt let this affect our trip because the beach was gorgeous!
Bullshit, a lie. I love st .J ,been there so many times , beautiful island. But this video is A FARCE. THE BEACHES ARE STILL WRACKED WITH DEAD TREES AND DEBRIS. Not a pretty site but understandable under the circumstances. It will be some time until the vegetation rebuilds, sad but true. This asshole is probably trying to sell time shares or rent villas to make MONEY. SICK BUT TRUE. Still a beautiful place to go BUT expect to see the effects of two 5 cat hurricanes
43 days until my family is down near Fish Bay.
Was this video takin today ? It looks so green !! I thought it was really dry there right now ! We will Be flyin in to st Thomas and heading to St. John on the 30th !!
Video was taken in February of this year.
That would be the perfect place to explore....
I spent my honeymoon 30 years ago at the VIRGIN GRAND MOTEL, Awesome. What is it called now???
Thanks for the video. We will be staying in your unit at the end of February and doing 8 TUFF Miles. What beach is at 1:55? It looks like my favorite beach Solomon Bay, but I had heard that all three palm trees were gone.
Hi Robin. The beach you ask about is Honeymoon beach. Hope you have a great stay at our place and good luck with 8 TUFF Miles!!
We have been to St. John many, many times, but not since the hurricane. We just had a stop on our cruise last week in St. Thomas, but not enough time to take the ferry over to St. John to check on it. It looks like many of the beaches that used to be perfect white sand now are very rocky. Still beautiful though. We were wondering if the islands were back good enough to come visit for at least a week at a time again, and we found the answer is yes! Still damage to be seen, but for the most part, everything is up and running... except our beloved Iggy's Restaurant right on the beach in Bolongo Bay. (In St. Thomas) Looks like it was a total loss and they aren't rebuilding. Thanks for posting!
