Highway 107 is a road on St. John, USVI. Its northern terminus is near the town of Coral Bay. The road runs almost five miles (making it the longest auxiliary route on the island) from Highway 10 to the southern shores of St. John. Highway 107 serves several towns along the shores of Coral Bay. The paved road ends (and thus loses its number) just inside Virgin Islands National Park; an unpaved road[5] continues about a mile before ending at a trailhead.
