Salomon Bay Reviews: “No longer nude, but still a winner”

Salomon Bay has a reputation from the past as a nude beach, but the Park Service has cracked down in recent years and the nude sunbathing has died out for the most part.

I spent two days there recently and there were never more than six or seven people on this delightful little beach, and none were nude.

There are always several boats anchored not far offshore, so any naked people would have a sizable audience, any of whom might be offended.

The beach itself is gorgeous. Small strip of white sand with crystal clear water and lots of vegetation (sea grapes, palm trees) leaning out over the water.

It's the first beach you come to on the Lind Point Trail, so it's only about a 15-minute hike from the Visitors' Center in Cruz Bay.

You could easily spend an entire day here, it's much less crowded and more peaceful than Trunk Bay or any of the other St. John "biggies" but just as beautiful.
