Virgin Islands National Park
Directions

Ferry service for passengers and vehicles is the only means of getting to and from St. John.

 

Once on St. John there are no designated entrances to Virgin Islands National Park, although two main routes will provide access to many areas.  Route 20 (North Shore Road) runs from the ferry dock past the Visitors Center to the most contiguous part of the Park, including most beaches and the campgrounds as well.  Large and small tracts of private lands are found within the authorized boundary of the Park.

Wasps, locally called Jack Spaniard in their nest.

Did You Know?
A wasp common to St. John is called the Jack Spaniard. These paper wasps are not aggressive, but will sting you repeatedly if disturbed. The sting can be quite painful, and should be treated with common sting relief remedies. The discomfort can last three days.
