Virgin Islands National Park

Established in 1956, Virgin Islands National Park protects 14,689 acres of tropical landscapes and waters across more than half of St. John island. The park features pristine white sand beaches, vibrant coral reefs, and dense forests alongside the ruins of historic sugar plantations.

Beyond its stunning beaches, the park preserves diverse marine ecosystems and important cultural sites spanning more than 1,000 years of human history. The cultural heritage includes both indigenous peoples and colonial-era sugar plantations.
