The name Abi Beach translates into “a splash of fun,” and you’ll find that and more here on this boat access-only secluded area of St. Thomas.

The best part? This beach is accessible by boat only. That means no resorts or big crowds. Visitors can also rent kayaks, paddleboards, and paddleboats.

For those looking to break a sweat before hitting the cool water, there’s even a regulation size volleyball court. Or, just stretch out and soak up the tropical sun in a lounge chair on this pristine beach. It’s your time in the sun, you decide.

Technically Abi Beach is not far from “civilization,” but it feels about a thousand miles away and that’s why we love it.
