      Best beach right next to the road.Beautiful white sand, lots of room and parking. Clear water. Very happy there.

      It is a beautiful calm beach. I recommend getting there early before 11am or after 4:30, if you want the beach without a crowd.

      Maho was the third beach we visited at St. John. Our group of 4 adults and 2 kids liked it the best of the ones we experienced (Trunk and St. Francis). We went back a second time. The beach is close to the road - not the negative you might think. It has a very gentle entry slope, a plus for kids and old folks like me. There is a nice turtle grass area with - turtles! The kids sure loved that. And there is some decent rock and coral areas with lots of fish activity.

      Wow, we remember the first time we visited St John at least 10 years ago, and this was an abandoned beach - we were the only ones there! Well, it is still beautiful, but good luck finding a parking spot at any of the North Shore Beaches. Hawksnest, Maho, Cinnamon, etc were all crowded. St. John has been found!

      Went here on a sail/snorkel half day trip out of Caneel Bay. Nice sail, but the snorkeling was nothing much.

      We went to Maho beach several times, generally at the end of the day after hiking or doing something else. It's convenient to park and a very short walk to the beach. The beach is very beautiful. Even though it is right along the road you hardly notice it as there isn't a lot of traffic and the plants provide a nice barrier. The beach is shallower and more protected than some of the other beaches and has many shade options. We also enjoyed watching the boats anchored and traveling past the beach. One of our favorites (hard to choose just one in St. John!).

      The beach has a wide shallow area. Watch out for Sting rays that like the warmer water. Lots of boats dock in the bay adding more interest. Not a busy as Cinnamon and Trunk.

      Turtles! Not much reef, but turtles love the grass easy to get to via a taxi or rental car. White sandy beaches and no waves.

      If you have a family with young kids (3-10 yrs.), Maho Bay is a wonderful beach on St. John's. The water is shallow and calm (due to winds being blocked by the mountain to the north). It's a great place for snorkeling newbies. Our 7 year old son repeatedly said it was his favorite beach, and our 9 year old son agreed. On the south end closer to the pit toilets, the coral reef is pretty but limited. On the north end, the shallow rocky areas offer many colorful fish and sea cucumbers, but beware of the black sea urchins and a friendly barracuda. We missed the sea turtles in the late afternoon (4:30pm), but early afternoon (12pm-2:30pm) may improve your chances for viewing sea turtles based on the advice of other Yelpers. Parking can be difficult from late morning to early afternoon. We found plenty of parking in the north lot on a Wednesday at 4:30pm, but it was probably because the sea turtles had already disappeared. Facilities are limited (i.e., no washing station for sandy feet, no flushing toilets) so you need to bring your own stuff. Pit toilets were OK and less stinky than expected (they seem to use tons of chemicals), but the "Jackson Pollock"-like artistry inside the toilets is not for the faint-hearted. Overall, if you have young kids or snorkeling newbies in tow, Maho Bay is the one kid-friendly beach that you absolutely must visit.

      Very few amenities. Great snorkeling. Limited but close parking. Lots of sun and shade and sheltered cove.
