Virgin Islands National Park occupies the majority of St. John, one of the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Many of the beaches are fringed by coral reefs.   They include Trunk Bay, backed by forests, and Francis Bay, whose calm waters are home to sea turtles.

Annaberg Plantation has the ruins of an 18th-century sugar plantation and a nice hiking trail.


Pops visited the Virgin Islands in February 2023.
