Need help on how to get to Honeymoon and Salomon

[StJohnbum]

Hard to believe but after all of these visits we have never been to Honeymoon or Salomon. Justice will prevail and that wrong shall be corrected today,.... if I can find my way there.

Need your help. I think you can park in the Caneel parking lot but once you do where do you pick up the trail? How far to the beaches, can we carry a beach chair in?

Thanks

From the parking lot, take a left and follow the sign to Honeymoon. From there you can take the trail to Solomon.
Sure you can carry in a beach chair! Have fun~

The walk isn't too long. It's a little extra effort to get to those two beaches. But they are definitely worth it!

we always go down past the front desk, hang a left and up the stairs. is there another way to pick up the path right from the parking lot?

No need to go to the front desk. Just take a left when you leave the guest parking area and follow the paved road which turns into a gravel road just past the last beach rooms.

Jim,
We're staying at Coral Dream in Coral Bay.
And we're on the 7:45 Continental flight out of Newark, on the 24th. You on that one too?

That is a great plan!

Also, paying the $10 to park at Caneel can be a good thing, I've learned. First, $10 is really nothing in the scheme of a trip. Second, you can stop at the bar on your way out, order a drink (a Pomegranate Mojito!), which are all coicidentally $10, and be well on your way. This may just be my rationale, but I figure then you only paid $5 to park, and got a $5 drink at Caneel! Win-win!

Thanks all for the help with directions to the beach. Just got back, beautiful.

Trip report, part two, come soon.

It's one of the best beach/snorkel areas on St. John. We always park up at the top of the hill and walk down. A tough walk back up, but well worth it. Hope you enjoyed it -- and wish we were there.
