What this means for your Magen beach day:
Magens Bay Beach is one of the Caribbean's most celebrated shores. A sheltered, one-mile crescent of white sand on the northern coast of St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. Its calm, shallow waters make it a favourite for families with young children, and the full range of on-beach amenities means everything you need is right there.
Because Magens Bay is St. Thomas's most popular beach, chairs and umbrellas fill up fast, especially on days when multiple cruise ships are in port. Reserving your beach chair and umbrella package online in advance guarantees your spot is set up and waiting when you arrive, so you can walk straight to the sand.
Whether you're planning a relaxed family beach day, making the most of a cruise port stop, or simply want the convenience of a pre-booked setup, SandySpot makes it easy to reserve your complete beach equipment rental at Magens Bay before you arrive at St. Thomas cruise port.
St. Thomas has two cruise terminals:
Crown Bay Cruise Center - located approximately 20-25 minutes by taxi to Magens Bay
Havensight Cruise Ship Dock (near Charlotte Amalie) - located approximately 20–25 minutes by taxi
Taxis depart regularly from both terminals and a taxi stand is located directly at Magens Bay for the return journey. The beach entry fee is paid on arrival.
Cruise passenger tip: On days when two or more ships are in port, Magens Bay gets busy early. Pre-booking your beach chairs and umbrella package through SandySpot means your setup is guaranteed and waiting for you - no queuing, no uncertainty, just more time at the beach.
Head to the beach hut located on the sand, directly in front of the boutique store and bar, look for the SandySpot signage.
Your chairs and umbrella package will be set up and waiting for you at your reserved time. Show your booking confirmation (the GPS pin in your confirmation email will bring you straight there). Staff will check you in and point you to your spot.
Arriving as a group or family? Let us know your party size when booking - larger family beach chair setups can be arranged in advance.
