About

Great Saint James is a private island in the United States Virgin Islands, located off the east end of St. Thomas and belonging to subdistrict East End, Saint Thomas. The island is approximately 165 acres (67 ha) in size, and is located 0.4 kilometres (0.25 mi) southeast of Saint Thomas. The island was most notably owned by financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, along with the neighboring Little Saint James island.

The cove on the west side of Great Saint James, Christmas Cove, is a popular snorkeling and mooring spot for day charter boats and yachts. Twenty-two overnight mooring balls are available (but are not regularly maintained).
