Stayed at Caneel bay on Scott beach. Great beach with lots to see, stingrays, turtles, donkeys, mongoose, and iguanas.Snorkeling available but it is only fair.Nice sunset.Was a bit more busy that we had heard, but not crowded at all.Nice and quiet with great service on the beach.Look for Mugsy, he will take great care of you.

Scott Beach is a wide white sand beach, about 15-20 meters in depth with a calm surf. There is shade from palm trees toward the back of the beach and very good snorkeling at the extreme right and left of the beach among the rocks and coral. There is a bar that provides drinks and lunch. This is a wonderful place to spend the whole day!

This is a fantastic beach with beautiful snorkeling and sunset views. Never crowded, grown ups only, and a lovely Beach Bar at the end make this a one stop shop when staying at Caneel Bay Resort.

This beach is a beautiful, long, wide and quiet beach. Good snorkeling at both ends of the beach! Great place to while away a day - some shade trees, if you need a respite from the sun!

I said to my wife..."we do not need to leave Caneel Bay...we will not find a nicer beach on the planet, much less on St. John".

Scott Beach is incredibly private and relaxing, but in addition to those qualities, also has lovely snorkeling.

This is the top beach of the Caneel Bay resort. It looks like a paradise, protected from winds and ocean streams it offers crystal waters and romantic sunsets.

There is no better beach in this part of the world. You can stumble out of your room in the morning and fall into the water. It is a perfect place to watch the grand children snorkel.

This is a long beach with plenty of room for people to spread out. Good snorkeling on the right-hand side.

Quiet, few others on the beach, waiters will take your drink orders, great for paddleboarding, just like the postcards you wished you lived.

One of the most beautiful and peaceful spots on earth! Turquoise water, white soft sand, beach chairs and floats with a full service beach bar makes for the most relaxing vacation spot on lush, green St. John... No children permitted so a perfect spot for reading that book you have neglected! Go here to calm your nerves and kick back with their specialty "Painkiller" cocktail... Paradise found !

That is what comes to mind when I think about Scott Beach. We spend a week a year on that beach and we start looking forward to our return from the day we depart. Scott beach is one of Caneel Bay's 7 beaches. In the high season, Scott is adults only, but that restriction is waived for Thanksgiving week, which is when we visit. The beach is wide, so generally, no one is sitting right next to you and there are good places to snorkel on both sides of the beach. There is also a bar on that beach so you don't have to rely on the bar cart for a drink.

We just walked out our back deck onto the beach It was beautiful with chairs right there. I found out later that the chairs did not belong to our room exclusively and we would have to reserve them like anywhere else.
