St Croix, VI?

Question

We will be vacationing in St.Croix in the middle of May,08. We would love information on things to do and sites to check out. The one main thing I want to do is super snorkeling...so if anyone has been and wants to give me the company they went through and how it was, that would be great. thanks

Answer 1

I love this question. You should go see Point Udall, the easternmost point of the U.S., and you need to go into the rain forest to see the beer-drinking pigs.  Also, go to Buck Island National Park, full day, so you can visit Buck Island and go snorkeling to see some beautiful sea creatures. You should also go to see the fort, its Danish from a few centuries ago, it served as a police station, a fire department, a prison, and a service area when the island was under danish rule. You can go to the buccaneer hotel for 4 dollars to lounge on the BEAUTIFUL beach.  I went from houston to miami to St. croix, and some of my tips are very important. in st. croix, you drive on the LEFT side of the road. And you need to go slow when you turn, because sometimes there are cows in the road. and watch out for mongooses in the streets.  Tamarind reef hotel is good, it has nice rooms, wireless internet and a big hill with a sugar mill on it. But the beach isnt that nice.  Though there is GREAT snorkeling, as you can see sea turtles 30 feet from shore. Don't forget to go to the dock in downtown Christiansted. There are great restaurants, just explore and you'll find some.  Don't forget Tido and Sue's crab races, where you can participate in a crab race, and the top prize winner wins a free trip to buck island national park, which i won, lol. They travel the island at different hotels and such. You don't have to rent a hotel, but at Tamarind reef there is a nice lovely restaurant, the Galleon i think, and also a restaurant by the pool thats serves pasta. It usually doesn't get very cold, but at night it can be chilly, but just bring a light sweater or something.  I hope you have the best time in St. Croix! Its the best place in the world!
