Cramer Park Beach in St Croix

Cramer’s Park Beach in St Croix is located on the north shore of St. Croix’s East End, near Point Udall and is surrounded by Knight Bay and Boiler Bay. This is a large public park and beach, and it is popular with locals for family gatherings and parties. The park is especially popular with locals on weekends, when families gather for cookouts, camping, and music. So if you want a quiet day at the beach, then you’re best advised to hit this beach sometime during the week rather than on weekends.

Because it sits inside a large public park, Cramer’s Park is one of the few beaches on St. Croix where visitors can picnic, grill, or even camp overnight.
