Milkshakes on the Rocks at Magen’s Bay
After a hearty breakfast, we gather our towels and lotion and head to the beach. Since I’ve always been a
beach lover, I can’t say enough about two of my favorite beaches. The first and
most famous St. Thomas beach is Magen’s Bay Beach. This beautiful crescent-shaped beach has
hosted thousands of weddings. Walking
along the beach to the left, you encounter diving pelicans searching for their
fish dinner. As you walk to the right and pass the concession stand you can then walk
in the water next to the rocks for quite a long way out because it’s so
shallow.

If you want a tasty treat after spending the morning soaking up the sun on the beach, make a milkshake run to Udder Delite. This dairy facility/hut, just a half mile from the beach, serves great milkshakes and even a whole menu of alcoholic milkshakes. Yum!
Quiet Day at Secret Harbour
My
second favorite beach on St. Thomas is Secret Harbour. This
little gem is an intimate and relaxing stretch of water
and beach tucked away on the east side of the island. It has great snorkeling
and very calm water. I spotted my first barracuda one day while snorkeling
there. We both just stared at each other for a few seconds before he swam off
to find a fish more his size. They are
generally very safe to be around unless you are wearing a shiny fishing lure
around your neck.
