The Westin St John Resort

St John Condos is a local team that helps travelers from King Cove, Alaska, plan a week of snorkeling and beach days at the Westin St John Resort. Villas are rented by the week, and the team answers questions before you book.

King Cove sits on the Alaska Peninsula in the far west of the state, where cold seas and long winters are part of everyday life. For many people here, a trip to warm, clear water is a welcome change. St. John, in the US Virgin Islands, offers exactly that, with calm bays, sunshine, and a slower pace that suits a week of snorkeling and beach days. The Westin St John Resort gives you a base for that kind of week, and villa rentals let you settle in for longer than a short hotel stay. You can wake up, walk to the water with a mask and fins, and come back when you are ready. St John Condos can talk through the details with you before you commit, so the plan feels clear from the start.

Planning a St. John week from King Cove

  1. Getting to the islands. Most visitors fly to St. Thomas, the airport code being STT, and then take a taxi to Red Hook. From there the passenger ferry carries you across to Cruz Bay on St. John. Plan your connections from King Cove with care, since the trip is long and it helps to have your bags and tickets organized before you leave home.
  2. Choosing when to leave. Alaska winters are dark and cold, so many people from King Cove prefer to head south when the days feel their shortest. Warm months on St. John are a good match for snorkeling, though you should expect hot sun and a chance of brief showers. Think about what you most want from the week and pick dates that suit your schedule and your tolerance for heat.
  3. Planning the stay. Villa rentals are booked by the week, which suits a snorkeling trip well because you can settle into a routine. Consider whether you want a villa close to the water or a quieter spot with a view. Remember that driving on St. John is on the left, so think about whether you want a car at all. The St John Condos team can help you match the villa to your plans.

Do I need a car to enjoy snorkeling and beach days on St. John?
