Oppenheimer beach

The location of Oppenheimer Beach on Google Maps is inaccurate, but it is still a wonderful beach.

Cruz Bay beach
8 Matt K.

The beach offers a picturesque scenery and is an ideal spot to dip your toes in the water. However, it may not be the best place for a swim due to the abundance of boats occupying the area.

Coki beach

We had to meet our two adventures on The Snorkel Cat at Margaritaville's dock. They have a fun little gift shop with a great attendant named Megan, who is a sweetheart. She is very kind and helpful. We also enjoyed the live music every night on the Six String Stage. We stayed for a concert by a band called LAVOIE, fronted by Ruby and Enoch. We got to enjoy their one-hour set on Wednesday night. On Thursday, we started to enjoy another local group, but the concert abruptly ended due to heavy rain. On Wednesday night, after my snorkeling disaster, we had a good dinner here. I had Cream of crab soup and onion rings, and I also tried Karen's fresh steamed seasonal veggies. It was all very delicious. We had the chance to meet three adorable wild kittens who hang out there and beg for food. We also encountered two wild black dogs that also hang out in the area.

Lameshur beach
10 Arielle Renner.

The beach was truly breathtaking. Although it may require a 4-wheel-drive to get there, it is definitely worth the journey. The snorkeling experience was exceptional, with an array of exotic fish, eagle rays, squid, and crabs swimming around us. It was a truly unforgettable experience.
