Any recommendation on places for a swim? Thanks Roben-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/271517?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 23 Aug 2013 06:03:41 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:caa74295-4756-4eb8-8e60-decb7d1630bcmichaelreed77Magen&#39;s bay is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. It used to be listed on various lists (may still be). You&#39;ll recognize it because you&#39;ve seen it in TV commercials. It is U-shaped with trees on either side, but a short beach with palms hanging over the water. An island in the middle at the top of the U would be great to swim out to.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/271494?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 23 Aug 2013 01:55:07 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:7aa4c471-0885-4aeb-9c1c-3f230f0cacebflystormsYes, but not on St Thomas! Take the ferry ($6 or 8) over to St John for the day and swim the north beaches. It&#39;s beautiful over there!! You can catch a cab/bus for next to nothing from the ferry dock to the nearby beaches too. The beaches are gorgeous and the water is stunning. Here&#39;s a link to the map for the B2B race held every Memorial Day weekend that will show you which beaches to swim. <a href="http://www.friendsvinp.org/race-course-map">www.friendsvinp.org/race-course-map</a> I guess if you had to go to St Thomas, though, Meghans Bay is probably the best swimming beach. Long and square.<div style="clear:both;"></div>
