U.S. Virgin Islands

Red Hook

Red Hook is a small coastal town on Saint Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands. While it isn’t a major dive hub, the area serves as a gateway to Caribbean diving nearby, with access to boat trips and shore entries from the island. The Virgin Islands are known for clear tropical water and healthy reef systems, though there aren’t dive sites listed directly in Red Hook itself. Visitors typically base themselves here to reach surrounding reefs and wrecks around St. Thomas and neighboring islands through local dive centers that offer basic courses, equipment rental, and guided dives.
