St. Croix is a little "out-of-the-way"
for Yacht Charters - there are no major charter companies based on this
island and the 40 mile stretch of water between St Thomas and St. Croix can
be pretty rough at times so traditional crewed yacht itineraries do not
include St Croix.
St Croix, the largest of the US Virgin Islands, lies like an emerald in
the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. It has a unique culture,
friendly people and a colourful history. It's beautiful beaches and other
recreational activities offer a vacation experience that is certainly more
laid-back than St Thomas or St John.
This island, nevertheless, offers a slower paced vacation - there are
many good hotels and restaurants and, of course, the Buck Island undersea
national park is a mecca for divers and snorkelers.
