Coral Bay is a picturesque, protected inlet on the southeastern shore of St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands. The bay and its surrounding waters, including the adjacent Hurricane Hole, are largely encompassed by the Virgin Islands National Park and the Virgin Islands Coral Reef National Monument, creating a pristine marine environment with a mosaic of critical habitats. The area features crystal-clear waters over a complex seafloor of coral reefs, seagrass beds, algal plains, and extensive mangrove shorelines, serving as a vital nursery and foraging ground for numerous fish species. With minimal commercial development, the east end of St. John offers a more remote and natural angling experience compared to other parts of the islands.
