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.
An iguana finds its way on to the patio at maho bay campground much to the delay of kids.  

Did You Know?
There are three species of lizards found on St. John. The iguana, which is not a true lizard, are vegetarians and are often found in trees. When threatened, they escape by dropping to the ground or into water. They can fall 40-50 feet to a hard surface without injuring themselves.
