MAIN Arrow to TravelTravel Arrow to Caribbean Caribbean Arrow to U.S. Virgin Islands U.S. Virgin Islands

St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands With the U.S. dollar recognized as the official currency - and English spoken everywhere - the U.S. Virgin Islands boasts some 2 million visitors a year.

Made up of St. Thomas, St. Croix, St. John and Water Island, USVI is most popular among Americans drawn by beautiful US Virgin Island beaches, and an exotic vacation with all the comforts of home!

Most of them will make the capital city of Charlotte Amalie, on St. Thomas, a home base for the most modern hotels, amenities and swinging nightlife — not to mention that the deep sea harbor is a favorite port of call for the largest cruise ships sailing throughout the Caribbean.

Nearby, the quieter atmosphere of St. Croix also beckons visitors with some of USVI's most spectacular natural beauty, along with historic sites, art galleries, restaurants and lots of duty-free shopping.

For an even more tranquil getaway, St. John has been designated a national park through almost its entire extent, and remains one of the most undeveloped and laid-back of all the three major islands. Only two resorts exist on the island, with many of its beaches left in their natural state and unspoiled by large hotels.

Independent souls who truly want a quiet getaway should sail (by ferry, from St. Thomas) to the most recent addition to the U.S. Virgin Islands, Water Island. Measuring only 492 acres and sparsely populated, Water Island's only concession to tourism is a number villas and cottages available for rent to visitors.
