St John, St Croix, St Thomas and Water Island make up the United States Virgin Islands (USVI). Although St Croix is larger than other islands in the chain, it still only comes in at 81km², which is good news if you're up to exploring this lush and exotic landscape. St Thomas offers great shopping and sailing, snorkeling and sightseeing, or diving and dining. Enjoy the island's world-renowned golf course, the picture-perfect beaches and spectacular nightlife. A yachter's paradise, St. Thomas also has one of the busiest ports in the West Indies. As far as its beaches go, they are, in a word, incredible, with the crème de la crème located on the shores of spectacular Magens Bay. Hailed as one of the world's most beautiful, this breathtaking bay along St. Thomas' rugged north coast is ideal for swimming and snorkeling.

Dining & Nightlife

Dining on St. Thomas is considered the most ambitious in the West Indies. You'll find innovative and eclectic variations on Caribbean, Italian, Mexican and Asian dishes in and around the capital of Charlotte Amalie. The best local Caribbean dishes on the island feature fresh seafood specialties such as spicy Creole takes on yellowtail, lobster and "ole wife". Seeing how St. Thomas is, after all, an American collectivity, they know how to whip up a good Texas-style barbecue as well; many renowned BBQ "pits" can be found throughout the island serving up mouth-watering ribs.

St. Thomas has a fairly quiet nightlife but if you are looking for something a little more lively, head west out of Charlotte Amalie to Frenchtown. This colourful village hosts all the best taverns and local live entertainment spots.
