Best Snorkeling St Croix Virgin Islands

Part of the allure of St Croix and the US Virgin Islands is the underwater marine life abundant off of our shores. You don’t have to be a certified PADI Scuba diver to experience these wonders. The Virgin Islands are surrounded by coral reefs that can be explored by snorkeling. Teeming with life, St Croix […]

Humpback Whale Migration in the US Virgin Islands

Humpback Whales of the Caribbean

Having moved to the Virgin Islands myself in order to avoid chilly New England winters, I completely understand the draw for snowbirds (winter island residents). There’s a strong connection between St Croix and the New England area. Enjoy a meal at Duggan’s Reef Restaurant with all of the Massachusetts college and university pennants lining the […]

Expedition: Shell Island

Shell Island St Croix

Many who have visited St Croix have had the pleasure of kayaking and exploring historic Salt River Bay – the site of Columbus’ second visit to the “New World”. And most have heard of Buck Island National Monument. But not so many have ventured out to St Croix’s other offshore beauty – Shell Island (aka […]

7 Days in Paradise: Shaking the Winter Blues

St Croix Vacation

When you live on an island far away from your family, your friends become your island family. And their family becomes an extension of yours. So, it’s fun when they visit over time, and you get to know them a little better each trip. My friend Greg’s sister, Jenni, has visited St Croix several times […]

Horsing Around on St Croix

May 21, 2014 by Cindy @ MyStCroix.VI 1 Comment

It had been about 15 years since I’d been on a horse and I’m not going to lie, I was nervous! I’d spent my childhood riding at any opportunity I could get. In college and after, I worked in several barns and rode quite a bit. But, when getting ready to move to St Croix […]

St Croix Christmas Boat Parade

December 13, 2013 by Cindy @ MyStCroix.VI Leave a Comment

I still remember my first St Croix Christmas Boat Parade in 2001. I had just moved down to the island the week before and was feeling a bit sad about missing Christmas in New England. That all changed the day I experienced the Boat Parade and realized that St Croix truly is Christmas Island! I […]

Keep Calm and Drink Rum

August 22, 2012 by Cindy @ MyStCroix.VI Leave a Comment

Tropical Storms and Hurricanes are a part of life in the islands. They aren’t something to be particularly fearful of and most often they aren’t much more than an inconvenience. However, they should be taken seriously and preparing ahead can avoid a lot of stress and frustration.  Here are a few of my tips for […]
