Dazey Drive In - Coral Bay’s Sweet Island Spot

Nestled in the heart of Coral Bay on St. John, Dazey Drive In has become one of the island’s most charming destinations for refreshing treats, tropical vibes, and local flavor — perfect after a beach day, sunset stroll, or island adventure.  

A Sweet Local Favorite — What to Expect

Dazey Drive In started as a beloved dessert and refreshment spot in Coral Bay, brought to life by the same island-loving team behind Salty Daze Charters — a local, family-run business on St. John.  

Today, it’s best known for:

• 🍧 Handcrafted Caribbean-style shave ice — light, fluffy, and served with tropical syrup flavors like coconut, passion fruit, and soursop, often paired with a scoop of ice cream and sweetened condensed milk for extra island flair.  

• 🍹 Fresh smoothies & smoothie bowls — bright, healthy, and delicious options fueled by fruit and island goodness.  

• 🍦 Sweet treats & Irie Pops — frozen pops and sweets adding even more variety to the menu.  

• ☀️ Friendly island atmosphere — laid-back, bright, and welcoming, it’s a perfect pit-stop for families, beachgoers, and travelers of all ages.  

Located in Coral Bay, the shop has an easygoing find-you vibe that fits perfectly with St. John’s slow pace and postcard-perfect scenery.  

Why Locals & Visitors Love It

While most visitors come for the refreshing shave ice, there’s more to Dazey Drive In than just sweet treats:

• 🌴 It’s a cool place to relax after a hot day at nearby beaches like Salt Pond Bay — no crowds, just good eats and ocean breezes.  

• ☀️ Portions are generous and share-friendly, making it easy to grab a treat for the whole family.  

• 😄 Guests often mention friendly staff and the chance to sample flavors before you choose, perfect for kids or indecisive adults!  

Updated Menu & Vibes for 2026

The menu has continued to evolve with island tastes — along with shaved ice and smoothies, you’ll now find:

• 🍍 Seasonal fruit bowls

• 🍋 Fresh juices and lemonades

• 🧉 Local-inspired syrup twists (think citrus + tropical blends)

• 🛍️ Light Salty Daze merch and reef-safe products to remember your visit by.  

Community & Growth — Dazey’s Bayhouse Headquarters

Since opening, the Dazey family and team have expanded their island footprint. In early 2026, Dazey’s Bayhouse opened in Coral Bay as a larger hub featuring:

• ☕ Coffee & baked goods

• 🥪 Sandwiches & weekend dinner features

• The headquarters for both Dazey Drive In and Salty Daze Charters.  

This means more food variety and a community hub where visitors can not only grab a refreshing treat but also gather, relax, and connect with local flavor and culture.
