Red Hook is the lively hub of St. Thomas's East End — and it's right at your doorstep when you stay with IslesAway. From waterfront dining to water sports, here's everything you need to know.
Where to Eat
From casual waterfront dining to Caribbean fusion, Red Hook has incredible food. Try fresh fish tacos at a beachside grill, Caribbean BBQ at a local favorite, or upscale island cuisine with harbor views. The American Yacht Harbor area has several excellent restaurants within walking distance of IslesAway properties.
Where to Drink
Red Hook's bar scene is laid-back and fun. Enjoy rum punches at sunset, craft cocktails at a marina-side bar, or live music at one of the open-air spots along the waterfront. Happy hour specials are common and the vibe is always relaxed.
What to Do
Rent a kayak or paddleboard, book a snorkel trip, or catch the ferry to St. John for the day. Red Hook is the departure point for most boat tours and BVI day trips. Fishing charters, sunset sails, and diving excursions are all available from the Red Hook marina.
Shopping
Browse local boutiques for island-made jewelry, art, and souvenirs. The American Yacht Harbor complex has shops, restaurants, and a lively atmosphere. You'll find everything from handmade crafts to island-inspired clothing.
