The colonial architecture throughout Christiansted and Frederiksted demonstrates the former influences of Spanish, French and Danish rule and you'll be warmly greeted by the local Crucians, known the world over for their warmth and hospitality. St. Croix is also famous for its abundance of sea life and vast scuba diving opportunities as the waters around the island are warm year-round.
With an annual average temperature of about 84 degrees and
little variation between seasons, St. Croix is a perfect year-round
destination. Mild trade winds keep most of the humidity at bay and
sunny skies lure beachgoers into the island's gentle waves. Most
rainfall happens from September through November, but the showers
tend to move along quickly.
