Magens Bay Arboretum
United States Virgin Islands, United States
Magens Bay Arboretum is a five-acre shaded grove located just inland of Magens Bay on the island of Saint Thomas in the United States Virgin Islands. It was originally planted in the 1920s by Arthur S. Fairchild, who owned several estates in the area and later donated the arboretum and adjacent Magens Bay Beach to the people of the Virgin Islands in 1947.
The arboretum features around 160 native and exotic tree species, including rare native trees and tropical plants imported from various regions. Despite suffering damage from hurricanes over the years, efforts have been made to restore and maintain this tranquil green space which is part of the larger Magens Bay nature preserve.
Visitors can enjoy the arboretum as a peaceful natural retreat showcasing biodiversity and supporting local conservation.
