Our sleepy little quirky town on the quieter side of the island just received some well-deserved accolades in a very popular publication. The New York Times featured Coral Bay in a great article earlier this week.
Described as a place that has a “backwater vibe” and where flip-flops are optional, Coral Bay was featured as a little-known gem off the Caribbean that is uncrowded, relaxed and simply perfect.
The article begins…
Ever daydream about vacationing alone on a tropical beach, where it’s just you, fluffy clouds and welcoming waves? That quiet relaxation is what I was looking for this fall on St. John, the smallest and wildest of the U.S. Virgin Islands. It has a reputation for being an off-the-beaten-path Caribbean gem. But I wasn’t sure what I’d find.
The piece spoke of hurricanes Irma and Maria, as well as the island’s resilience and ability to bounce back from two category five hurricanes, plus a worldwide pandemic. The article was very well-written, and I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I always appreciate when St. John get’s the praise and recognition it deserves. We truly live in, and many of you vacation in, one of the most amazing places in the world. How fortunate are we?
