Cruise Ship Snorkeling - St. Thomas - Coki Point Beach - Virgin Islands

This was my second trip cruise to St Thomas. On our first trip, we wanted to swim with the turtles so we went to Brewers Bay, but on this trip, we wanted to find the best reef and fish possible.
We took a 20-minute taxi ride to Coki Beach Point and we weren't disappointed. Even though the beach was crowded it was worth the trip. The sand was pristine and the water was a beautiful aqua color and super clear.
This area has something for every snorkeler and divers alike, from absolute beginner to advanced snorkelers and divers. I give it two thumbs way up!

Coki beach has not always been this way. I was shocked with the amount of people. I love to cruise and I guess larger and more ships means more people. We would always tell people, go to Coki beach if you want to snorkel. Dog biscuits work great to attract fish.

Cool, that’s great to know. Yea it was crowded the day we went but I would still go back just for the snorkeling. The sand was also amazing, super soft

Thanks for the info! Can i ask if we brought our own chairs and umbrella would we have been able to take them on the taxi?

[@Snorktastic]

I’ve never tried it,but I don’t see why not.
We take a rolling duffle bag and a beach bag and have never had a problem.
You can use any part of the beach for free. I see people just laying out their towels so they don’t have to rent a chair, and that’s totally fine.

No need to bring any chairs or umbrellas. You can pay for them on the beach.

Can you please tell me about the transportation you took?

[@Snorktastic]

They had taxi rides that were open air shuttle buses. They charged us per person. I think it was 14 per person but I can’t remember for sure. All you do is go to the cruise port entrance and get in the taxi line and tell there where you want to go. It was pretty easy and felt safe

We took an open air taxi ride which was very common there. They are passenger trucks that go to the main destinations and they charge by the person, i think ours was 14 per person
