| Sydney and Victoria loving Francis Bay! |
Francis Bay is one of the last beaches on the North Shore road in the National Park on St. John. Everyone has their favorites, for any number of reasons but this beach has always been one of our favorites.

| The perfect day |
The reasons are many:
- Lots of mooring balls to choose from if we want to bring the boat over. Also, more parking than most beaches.
- The bay is always calm since it faces West and Mary's point protects it from the North.
- The beach is long and expansive allowing for lots of quiet places to get away from the crowd.
- There are some picnic tables if you want to grill out.
- Good habitat for turtles, sting rays and even an occasional spotted eagle ray.
When my cousin Krystal and her family came to visit we made Francis Bay our last beach of their trip. I hadn't seen my cousin and her family for about 13 years so we thoroughly enjoyed catching up and showing them St. John at the same time. They loved it! They actually ditched their St. Thomas hotel and stayed at Concordia Eco tents in the south east end of St. John for a couple of nights so they could spend more time over here. So great to have family visit and reconnect.
Enjoy a few pictures of Francis. Be careful, it just might end up being your favorite too!
