An island of contrasts, St. Croix combines a rural feel with excellent dining choices, great golf courses, and airport access. Beachfront resorts of all sizes, a handful of small hotels tucked away in the island’s two towns, numerous condominium complexes on the beach and up in the hills, old sugar plantation ruins, and an oil refinery all share its 58 sq miles (150 sq km) of rolling hills and undulating coastline. Its size makes it large enough for some interesting drives, but small enough to find the perfect patch of island sun. In short, St. Croix combines the best of the other USVI islands sitting 40 miles (64 km) to the north, with a pace not as slow as St. John’s but with less bustle than St. Thomas.
