This is a favorite beach of the locals. The water is peaceful, the beach is soft white sand, great view down island. The beach is now being privately managed and facilities are being built.

On the advise of a local ,we went to this beach because that's where the local residents go to escape the crowds.In our opinion ,it was best beach on St. Thomas.'Peace and Quiet and beautiful' as my wife described in simple terms.. When we left ,we both were awestruck with this beautiful ,unheralded beach.There is construction going on to upgrade the available facilities which means there will be more people next year when we visit....not good.. but at least we can say we experienced the best beach on St. Thomas.

This is a little hard to locate though they are working on better access and parking. It is a nice sandy beach with pretty good snorkeling. There are picnic tables available as well.

You have to pay admission to get in, but it is much nicer and less crowded than most of the beaches in St. Thomas.

We have been going to Lindquist Beach for eight years and this week, unfortunately, the cruise lines have discovered this tranquil beach. We arrived with numerous chaise lounges, trailer portable tiolets on the beach. Fifty cruisers arrived via taxi and overtook the end of the beach where we were sitting. Two hours later fifty more cruisers arrived and the original fifty departed.What a shame our little piece of heaven has been invaded.

We tried Lindquist Beach for the first time in February. Although the amenities have not yet been developed, it is a wonderful place. Lots of shade, wonderful sand, clear water - and so far, not many people. AND easy parking.

This is the third year we have enjoyed this low key beach on the northeast part of the island with soft gradual white sand and calm crystal clear turquoise water. Each year there is more progress in terms of improvements and appointments. The construction is slow, but it is now evident that the long term plan will include restrooms, changing rooms, and perhaps food vending. Right now, there is a paved parking lot, and a paved walkway down to the beach where there is a friendly person collecting $2 per person.The far west end (to the left) has apparently "first come, first served" chairs and this end features a sandy point overlooking a rocky beach with considerable wave action. If this can be navigated, there is about a ten foot drop with an abundance of fish and coral for a "National Geographic" snorkeling experience.The more protected east end (to the right) of the beach boasts of perfectly tranquil water, (even during the winter swells) suitable for children, soft white sand and a few picnic tables. The snorkeling is minimal, with some very "sociable fish" close to shore who seem to beg for food and are ready to demonstrate their disappointment by nudging undetecting swimmers and making them squeal with surprise. Albeit, this is a great place for beginner snorkelers to "get their feet wet", a perfect place to relax in the sun...also there is shade....and spend a day to remember in paradise with a good book, a hat, sun screen, and a towel.We noticed that every year there are more people escaping the cruise crowds of Coki and Megan Bay Beach.

While everyone is at Megan's Bay and Coki Beach, Lindquist is sitting peacefully away from the hustle and bustle. I was there an entire morning/afternoon and there wasn't more then 20 people on the beach the entire time. There's not much there besides the sand and the water (and a porto-potty) but that's all you really need. Bring your snorkel gear and look into the water to find some really cool fish (baracuda, baby lobster hidden under rocks/coral, sea urchin, brittle starfish, etc). There is a colorful reef abotu 30 ft out, though I didn't make it out that far. This is a perfect hidden gem (I almost didn't want to write this review and spoil the tranquility of this beach but I couldn't resist it). I went to a few different islands and this was the best beach I went to!

Loved the views from the left. I wanted to stare all day. Snorkeling is to the right and it had some adorable little fish to play with. Not as populated as the other beaches.

The sand was white, the water was clear and it wasn't crowded. One of the most beautiful beaches we have ever been on.
