Come talk to us to find your ideal piece of St. John real estate and Virgin Island real estate!

Coral Bay is a unique and entertaining settlement on the lovely island of St John. It is an eclectic mixture of beautiful and not so beautiful, of tropical and “stateside,” of new and old. Donkeys and goats and chickens and sheep share roads and fields with locals and tourists. These days there is bus service to the “other” side of the island. There is a gas station which actually is open, as well as 2 small grocery stores.

The harbor is the center of the area. Ringed by beautiful green hills, now dotted with homes, many sailboats are moored here. An old, historic concrete dock, is the traditional entryway for sailors arriving on these shores. This dock has been in use since the 20’s when Coral Harbor was the primary entry point into St. John and travel was busy between this island and Tortola. Just around the corner is the larger harbor, in fact the largest natural harbor in the Caribbean. “Hurricane Hole”, now protected by the Virgin Islands National Park, has historically been a safe harbor for ships in the Caribbean during Hurricane Season. Geographically this area is spectacular.

Now when one arrives ashore in this Caribbean homestyle harbor, one is greeted by an array of dinghies, boats and cars. Coral Bay Marine stands guard at head of the dock, look here for Alan and Sandy Mohler, and their dog Dipstick, the proprietors, who have an incredible wealth of knowledge of all things marine. If you need engine work, marine or automotive this is the place. Alan Mohler was the proud recipient of the ”Golden Anchor” award for his invaluable help to all islanders and boaters after Hurricane Marilyn in 1995.

A short distance away, is Skinny Legs, or Skinny’s, a famous island hangout for locals and tourists alike. Everyone has had a Skinny’s burger or mahi sandwich at some time! The complex also houses various retail stores. Many events are held here annually and all of them are fun! This is the social center of the area, the Coral Bay Yacht Club meets here and every Saturday morning the popular KATS (Kids and the Sea) program kicks off its weekly sessions here. Look for Doug and Mo, long time residents and owners, they have the “skinny” on everything!

Just down the “main street” brightly painted and well maintained fire trucks are parked in front of the Coral Bay Fire Station. If you need assistance, you can always stop here. And adjacent to the Fire Station is the Elementary School, to be precise, the Guy Benjamin Elementary School, named after St John’s and Coral Bay’s most famous resident, Guy Benjamin. Guy Benjamin has been wonderfully documenting life in these islands his entire life. He is usually at home in Coral Bay surrounded by his beloved animals and plants. Sputnik’s, a local bar named for the satellite, and the P&B Café an excellent breakfast and pizza parlor are located just across the street.

One of the newest additions to all of this “development” is the Town & Country Building, a“West Indian Style” office building providing much needed rental space for local businesses, as well as our own real estate, now serving both ends of the island for anybody's St. John real estate / Virgin Island real estate needs.
