Drake's Seat, Magens Bay & Skyride

Take in St. Thomas’ stunning natural beauty from two unique vantage points and spend hours relaxing at the island’s most celebrated beach. As you ascend the verdant hills behind the capital city of Charlotte Amalie, the sights will become all the more magnificent. While pausing for photos at the Drake’s Seat lookout, you will be treated to a sweeping view of the sea from the spot where Sir Francis Drake supposedly watched for ships to plunder in the late 1500s. Below lies lovely Magens Bay, whose beach is considered one of the world’s finest. During free time there, you might stretch out on a blanket and bask in the sun, take a refreshing swim in the turquoise waters and stroll the sugar-sand shoreline. Back in Charlotte Amalie, you will hop into a Skyride aerial tram and travel up to the top of Paradise Point. The views will be extraordinary the entire way, but especially from the summit.
