A Destination That Won't Disappoint
The US Virgin Islands have been a United States territory since 1917. Its luscious beaches, white sands, and multiple islands to explore make it a popular destination vacation for many folks across the globe. It has three primary islands, St. John, St. Thomas, and St. Croix–but there are 50 little islands, cays, and islets surrounding the US Virgin Islands territory.
The weather, on average, is always a “beach perfect” paradise which has earned it the nickname American Paradise and made it a tourist destination that is visited all year round with no obvious off-season.
You can spend the day sunbathing, swimming, or relaxing in a beach chair or hammock at one of the islands’ beaches that are consistently ranked among the top 10 in the world. Or, if you prefer to enjoy the culture, there is plenty of food, shopping, and entertainment on the island.
Water activities are some of the favorites and the islands are not short of any, from diving, deep-sea fishing, sailing, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddleboarding to windsurfing and jet skiing. With more than 500 species of the sea, 40 types of coral, and hundreds of creatures inhabiting the sea there is much to do and always something to see on a US Virgin Islands vacation. You won’t be disappointed.
