Love2CruiseTampa Posted February 11, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Lindquist has less facilities (no bar or restaurant, but sometimes food truck) than Magens, which may be a plus or a minus for you- it is a plus for us. Snorkeling is better at Lindquist than Magens. Both have entry fees, so that is really a wash. You can see the other islands from Lindquist, which I find interesting. Magens is really shallow going out, which is nice and the water will have the best chance of being calm. I guess it really depends on what you are looking for!

blue_water Posted February 11, 2020 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Depends on what you are looking for - a gorgeous beach where most of your fellow cruise mates will head to? Or arguably the nicest STT beach with no amenities other than restrooms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseapril Posted February 11, 2020 #4 Share Posted February 11, 2020 There is not much snorkeling at Magen's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2PinaColadas Posted February 14, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 14, 2020 We prefer Lindqvist. Gorgeous beach and not as crowded as Megan's. Just pack a cooler, grab some towels and relax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O2B@Cagain Posted February 15, 2020 #6 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Lindqvist/Smith Bay and Magens are both part of a territorial park system. There is an entry fee, lifeguards, etc. Magens has a bit more infrastructure, having been in existence much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
