When there are cruise ships in port this smaller beach is rather crowded. So, if you are coming here from an on island resort, I would suggest checking when there are no ships in port and go that day. Big Tony's Beach Hut, has a delicious Mahi Burger, that makes going to this beach worthwhile even if you are afraid of the water. The snorkeling at this beach was great. We saw a couple of southern stingrays as well as a multitude of various fish. It did not take long once we started snorkeling before we saw sealife. The sand was nice with very few rocks.

We visited Coki Beach for the day on Dec. 10, 2022. The view is beautiful, and the water was much calmer than Magen's Bay, which we'd been to the day before. This year there was a huge seaweed bloom, so there was a ton of seaweed all over the beach as well as in the water. The snorkeling was great. I saw many colorful fish, including one about 3 feet long, and the snorkeling is best along the sides of the bay near the rocks. The reason this review isn't higher is because later in the day, just a few hours after our visit, I started getting a rash, which I think was either swimmer's itch or "sea bather's eruption" (which is actually caused by thimble jellyfish). I didn't feel any stings in the water, which I've learned is typical for thimble jellyfish (which aren't visible), but my legs and arms were covered in a horribly itchy and ugly red rash by the following day. It's now 6 days later, and I still have the itchy rash all over. Rash aside, there are nice beach chairs for $10 rental, servers that will take drink and food orders, and I highly recommend getting food from Catch of the Day. I had the butterfly lobster tail ($30) with fries and lobster macaroni, and it was delicious. Portions are huge, so it's good to share. There are kiosks that sell beach towels and other necessities/souvenirs. The people walking the beach and selling massages (and weed and other items) are present, but they aren't too persistent. Coki Beach is also just a 5 minute easy walk from Margaritaville for anyone staying there. It's worth a visit, but if you swim (at least around the time I visited), be sure to rinse off and dry yourself off vigorously when you leave the water to help avoid this rash!

Coki Beach is nice! Great to take pictures. The water is beautiful, clear, and calm! Bought fish food to feed the fish in the beach. Parking was a little difficult. Had an option to pay 5 dollars to park in a lot. But I seen someone was blocked in and said they spent all afternoon trying to find the owners of the car to unblock them. Plenty of places to eat along the beach. There was a booth to rent towels and chairs from and whatever you may have forgotten. I seen a bunch of people snorkeling here as well. Overall nice beach but small and can get crowed.

This ended up being the best beach of all we tried!! We went to Linquist and Magens but found this to be the best. We saw fish and coral. The staff were friendly at the restaurants and the staff with chairs and umbrella was friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this beach. We had the best day there. Trick is to get there early like 10 am. It gets very busy and full after 12 pm. Plant yourself right in front of the water. Best day ever!!

This is not a high-class resort beach.It is a funky fun very energetic beach great for snorkeling. Order a catch of the day from the staff walking up and down the beach to serve you. 20.00 for a whole very freshly caught I think yellow tail. with rice salad and veggies. Hubby and I split it . There is always music playing. It can get very crowded on cruise ship days.

The homemade drinks that you get to finish off with as much rum as you want. The beach chairs were inexpensive and the food was great. This is a native FUN Beach so if you are looking for a quiet, stuffy, NY/NJ type crowd or beach this is not for you.

We walked here from our resort, and felt completely comfortable. We've been to the island numerous times, so the things people are complaining about may just be something they are not used to? This was our favorite beach day so far, with very little sea grass, superb snorkeling (you feel like you're in an aquarium) to the right near rocks. All the staff were friendly and kind, not pushy at all. Food and drink vendors abound. Plenty of chairs and umbrellas to rent. We will definitely return!

One of the cheaper things you can find to do on St. Thomas, and it is one of the best snorkeling spots on the island. We paid to snorkel in. This was one of the stops that the boat would take us to if we had an already been. Water is crystal, clear, food, drinks, and everything else sold at the beach.

Water was beautiful and staff was friendly but beach was overcrowded and very dirty. We were packed in like sardines and Trash cans were overflowing with yesterdays trash and flies. Definitely a lot of potential and I’m not sure about the other options but we will definitely try the others before going back.

My family visited this beach during spring break 2023; 4 adults and 3 kids, ages 8,7,&4. The beach is beautiful and the water is very clear, which makes for great snorkeling. Its a small beach so it gets very crowded, but all the people we met were very friendly. Two functional lounge chairs and an umbrella cost $25, which I thought was reasonable. A bucket of beer (6) cost $20 and a rum runner cost $8; it was strong. If you're looking for something a little more "chill," then ask around, and you will find it. Transportation from the cruise ship was $14 per person, including children, using "Best" shuttles. However, I spoke with another "Best" shuttle operator and he only charged $12 per person, children ride free, going back to the cruise ship. If possible, negotiate the best price possible adults and children. I would visit again, but would use a different method of transportation.
