2024 Map of Hams Bay

About this map

Northside and the small settlement of Hams occupy the northwest corner of Saint Croix Island in this recent topographic study. The landscape is defined by its coastal interface with the Caribbean Sea, where the shoreline transitions from the sheltered waters of Hams Bay to the rocky protrusion of Littlebay Point. High ground rises sharply from the coast, including Prospect Hill and Washington Hill, which provide a commanding view over the nearby Butlers Bay. Along the water, Monks Bath Beach serves as a notable coastal landmark. Transportation is limited to the winding path of Hams Bluff Rd, which traces the contours of the island's edge. This map documents the current state of these hills and bays, reflecting a quiet corner of the island where the terrain largely dictates the pattern of human presence.
