16 Fun Things to See & Do in the Virgin Islands in 2025

"Cutting through the center of St. John, the Reef Bay Trail takes you through forested terrain with old sugar plantations, stone ruins, ancient Taino petroglyphs, and a deserted sugar factory by the water; it’s beautiful and manageable, ending at a beach that’s perfect for a dip — combine it with the Cinnamon Trail to cross the island in about four hours." - Matthew Kepnes
