Love St. John. Love The Park.
Stunning beaches, miles of trails, marine life, fauna and flora in abundance, and a rich cultural history! Some 60% of St. John is Virgin Islands National Park and Virgin Islands Coral Reef National Monument.
Established in 1988, Friends of Virgin Islands National Park works to help assure our unique terrestrial and marine resources are protected, our Virgin Islands' cultural treasures are preserved, and our visitors, youth, and community are connected to their Park through volunteerism and education.
The work we do is made possible thanks to the support of people like you! Thank you!
