Many call it the most quaint of the three U.S. Virgin|
Islands. With the old-world ambiance of its two towns|
– Christiansted and Frederiksted – a walk through the|
Danish architecture-lined streets seems more like a step|
back into history. From the ramparts of the old Fort|
Christianvaern to the collection of shops housed in old|
Danish warehouses. Christiansted offers plenty to do.|
Frederiksted, on the west end of the island, has|
maintained the feel of its past with wonderful gingerbread|
structures running up and down the main street. Venture on horseback through the|
Crucian countryside and the lush tropical rain forest, seeing wildlife and an abundance of|
flora that
make St.|Croix the garden of the Virgin|
Islands.
Surrounded|
by white sand beaches and stunningly beautiful aqua water,|St. Croix offers a| unique vacation where you can enjoy your favorite activities…| or simply lie on a|beach. 
Plenty of beaches,|both large and small, can be
found on St. Croix.|Southshore winds bring big
rolling waves,|while northside beaches remain morecalm.|You won't want to miss the spectacular sandy beach|on Buck Island.
