Virgin Islands Essentials

St. Croix features a blend of colonial history and diverse ecosystems. Historic sites include Fort Frederik and the 18th-century Estate Whim Plantation Museum, while the Cruzan Rum Distillery represents local industry. Natural landmarks range from Point Udall, the easternmost point of the United States, to the tide pools at Annaly Bay. Ecological preservation is central to the Salt River Bay National Historic Site and the East End Marine Park. For underwater exploration, Frederiksted Pier and Cane Bay offer access to coral reefs and clear waters.
