About Virgin Island National Park Overnight Mooring
Discover the freedom of island mooring in the pristine bays of St. John, where your vessel becomes your gateway to Caribbean paradise. These convenient moorings along both the north and south shores welcome boaters on a first-come, first-served basis, with simple self-pay options through Recreation.gov's mobile app at floating paystations—just scan the QR code and you're set for your stay.
This facility provides overnight and day-use moorings for boats around St. John (north and south shores) on a first-come, first-served basis; visitors must arrive on-site to purchase and claim a mooring.
Natural Features and SceneryPicture your boat gently swaying in crystal-clear turquoise waters, surrounded by the lush tropical hillsides of St. John's protected bays. These thoughtfully placed moorings do more than provide a place to anchor—they're environmental guardians, protecting the delicate coral and seagrass ecosystems thriving below while positioning you perfectly for unforgettable snorkeling adventures and easy access to some of the Caribbean's most stunning beaches. Wake up to the sight of sea turtles gliding beneath your hull and spend your days exploring underwater gardens teeming with colorful marine life.
