List of lakes of the United States Virgin Islands

An enlargeable map of the Territory of the United States Virgin Islands

The United States Virgin Islands have no natural lake-like bodies of water.[1] The islands have very few freshwater resources.[2] The U.S. virgin Islands is made up of 4 large islands and about 50 smaller islands. The large islands are: St. Croix, St. Thomas, St. John and Water Island.[3]

The Virgin Islands rely on ocean water desalination to supply fresh water to residents and tourists. In addition all hotels collect rain water on their rooftops.[4] *There are no large rivers or reservoirs in the Virgin Islands.[5][6]
