How Many Acres is the Park? The park is comprised of 7,259 terrestrial acres and 5,650 submerged acres. The park owns 122 acres or 90% of Hassel Island. What can I do in an hour? The Reef Bay hike takes almost six hours, starting from the Visitor Center at 9:30 a.m. Mondays and Thursdays (schedule changes during the winter months). Reservations are required and there is a transportation fee. Hikers should bring adequate water, lunch and a swimsuit. See the Weekly Programs brochure for more details.
Where is the best snorkeling? The calm warm waters around St. John provide great opportunities for snorkeling. Some of the best areas for snorkeling can be accessed from the shoreline. Stop by the VisitorCenter for a park brochure and snorkeling guide. |
