What a great stop while driving around the island. We stopped there on the way to Magan's Bay. It was a great place to take some pictures.

We used Gary Gumbs of TWS Taxi Services to take us on a tour around the island. It was fabulous. The tour lasted two and a half hours and Gary was able to take us to all of the historical sites on St. Thomas as well as the various beaches. We used Gary as our taxi for the remainder of... More

I'm not sure if Drake sat on a park bench across from a paved scenic parking lot, but if you are looking for some good panorama shots this place would be hard to beat.

Amazing view of Magen's Bay. At the top of the hill overlooking the neighboring islands is quite a sight to see.

Since when is a road side scenic overlook an official tourist destination? Yes, the view overlooking Magens Bay was pretty, but it is an overlook folks...that is all it is. So stop, look, and then move on.
