Photograph by David Coleman. Cinnamon Bay, located on the north shore of St. John in the US Virgin Islands, is a breathtaking example of Caribbean coastal beauty. This crescent-shaped beach, stretching for about a mile, is renowned for its powdery white sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters. As part of the Virgin Islands National Park, which covers approximately two-thirds of St. John, Cinnamon Bay remains largely undeveloped, preserving its natural splendor. The beach is fringed by native vegetation, including sea grape trees and coconut palms, providing natural shade and habitat for local wildlife. Cinnamon Bay's calm, shallow waters make it an ideal spot for swimming and snorkeling, with coral reefs lying just offshore, teeming with colorful tropical fish and marine life. The bay also offers excellent conditions for other water activities such as kayaking and paddleboarding. Historically, the area around Cinnamon Bay has been significant, with archaeological evidence of both Taino and colonial-era settlements. Today, it's a popular destination for visitors, offering camping facilities that allow guests to immerse themselves in the island's natural environment. The beach provides stunning views of the neighboring British Virgin Islands to the north, adding to its scenic appeal. As part of the US Virgin Islands, an unincorporated territory of the United States, Cinnamon Bay represents the blend of unspoiled natural beauty and accessible tropical paradise that characterizes St. John.
