      While visiting St. John/St. Thomas we visited Water Island and took a nice walk from Honeymoon Beach out to the southern tip and Fort Segarra, originally built to protect the entrance to St. Thomas harbor. There are two large gun emplacements, a watchtower and some underground bunker to explore. Bring a flashlight to help your exploration. And definitely walk up to the top to enjoy the amazing views all around. We were fortunate to have a clear day and were able to see many of the surrounding islands. There are other great views and bays to see as you walk the island. You can visit Honeymoon Beach after for lunch and a swim!

      Four of us rented a golf cart and toured the entire island.What amazing views !The old gun turrets and tunnels built in world war two were very mind boggling. The lunch at Heidi's on the beach was delicious. Fun ,Fun,Fun

      I "clicked" there is a fee, but that is for the ferry ride to get to Water Island. Open air bus takes you to the main beach. Heard good things about Dingys Beach Bar, but only had one quick drink. Great beach and acceptable snorkeling - but so close to Charlotte Amalie

      Jeff took us on a free truck ride to a secluded beach spot. I snorkeled and saw a sea turtle and loads of fish! It was beautiful and I didn't want to leave!

      Short ferry ride over. Short walk (rides available). Beautiful beach, calm waters and great food. Fun and easy excursion when staying on St. Thomas.

      But this was such an amazing island just the way it is. It is quiet, beautiful, and fun and the locals are amazing!

      Get away from the cruise ships, the sunburned shoppers, noisy cars. Nice sea breezes, beaches, great running roads.

      My husband and I had great fun while on this island! We rented a golf cart from a girl named Rachel ($ 30) and just cruised around the island (staying away from the roads marked private and no trespassing.) The beach was crowded, but it's one of the best we've been to! We ate at Dingy's, but wished we would've eaten at Heidi's instead. When we went there were a ton of mosquito's so make sure to bring bug spray!!! You can take a ferry to Water Island from Crown Bay for $10 per person round trip. It gets crowded fast, so be sure to make it there a little bit earlier, otherwise you'll be waiting on the dock for it to return, which would be another 20-30 minutes....

      I almost hate to write a review about this pristine place, as I would hate to see it become overcrowded and "touristy"....but, I found out about it from Trip Advisor, so I feel I should pay it forward with a review.First, I hate crowds. I hate being herded on and off a "tour" bus like cattle and only being able to see the area from behind a window. I also didn't like the idea of milling around in St. Thomas with thousands of other cruise passengers. Did I mention I don't like crowds?So, when deciding what I should do while the ship was docked in St. Thomas, I was lucky enough to happen upon some reviews about Water Island. This is not the place if you want to shop, as the only two establishments on the island are two beach bars on Honeymoon Beach. For me....it sounded like paradise!I took the water taxi (small boat) to Water Island from the Crown Bay Marina (where my ship was docked), and it was a pleasant and quick ten minute trip to get to Water Island....aka paradise. If your ship docks at Havensight, you would have to take a taxi over to Crown Bay in order to get the water taxi to Water Island.Before leaving home, I made reservations for a golf cart with Kelly's carts. When I arrived, she was waiting by the dock with carts for the folks who had made reservations. She was very nice and gave us a run down of the island, provided a map and reminded us to drive on the left side of the road (which was difficult to get used to). Fortunately for me, there wasn't much traffic because I found myself on the right side of the road a few times!!I toured around the island on the golf cart, stopping for pictures and taking in the natural beauty. I settled in for a few hours at Honeymoon Beach and had lunch and a drink at Heidi's on the beach (best fish taco ever). To be honest, I got lost several times, but since the island isn't that big, I found my way back without difficulty....it was a fun adventure. This is a place I would visit again and again....I can't recommend it enough for those who want to get away from it all.

      sixth time to St Thomas and first to water island. Loved it. Great snorkeling. Rented a golf cart from Kelly's carts ( a must do). Susan met us at the docks and off we went. Honeymoon bay was beautiful, lunch was a bit expensive. When we couldn't find the fort, Susan from Kelly's carts said "come on" and showed us personally hoe to get there. great day, we'll be back!
