From St. Thomas Via Passenger Ferry:
Take the ferry to St. John, which departs from Red Hook (the easternmost point of St. Thomas) every hour on the hour in both directions. The ferry costs $7 per person each way and is a 15-minute scenic and enjoyable ride. Once in St. John, walk 2 blocks to the left towards the VI National Park Visitor Center where you will find the Lind Point Trail that leads you to Honeymoon Beach at Caneel Bay. Approximately a one-mile hike.
From St. Thomas Via Car Barge:
Or, bring your car on the barge which mostly leaves every 30 minutes and costs $50 round trip. This is a better deal than the passenger ferry if you have 4 or more people as it gives you flexibility without needing a taxi service once you arrive on St. John. You will find the car barge to the left of the people passenger ferry on St. Thomas in Red Hook. The last car barge departs St. John at 6:15 pm to return to St. Thomas by 6:45 pm.
