Experience the US Virgin Islands


The Virgin Islands are nature based with absolutely stunning vistas, beautiful land and seascapes with lush greenery. There are riotous bursts of color everywhere from the hundreds of varieties of flowers that grow so readily here. With magnificent white-sand, turquoise-water beaches, the islands are a great last minute vacation destination.  You can enjoy casinos, wonderful restaurants, golfing, shopping, and a lively nightlife.  The most attractive aspects of your time on the Virgin Islands are the animal life on land, in the air and in the sea.

From the steeply angled mountains of St. John and St. Thomas to the rolling hills and sweeping plains of St. Croix, the land itself offers plenty of opportunities to explore nature on a
last minute holiday. Some of the most attractive aspects you will find during your time on the Virgin Islands are the animal life on land, in the air and in the sea.

Hike or ride a horse through St. Croix's rain forest and explore the island's wildlife refuge and the Salt River Park. There are a lot of beaches and one is more beautiful than the last. All three islands boast of some of the most attractive beaches anywhere. The islands offer a great vacation value for a

Try a zip line in St. Thomas or visit the Coral World Ocean Park and enjoy the beauty and magic of the world under the sea.  Plenty of opportunities are provided to see the wildlife in the sea and on the land. Sea turtles nest on protected beaches. The waters around the islands teem with tropical fish. The forests are home to mongooses, wild donkeys, native bats, and even white-tail deer. Small lizards scurry through gardens and up the walls of old buildings. Butterflies and tropical birds fill the air with color and song.  There is so much to experience on a

Hike through the historic ruins of a sugar plantation in St. John.  A tour of the Annaberg Sugar Mill is one of the most popular attractions.  Or take a hike through the shady forest following the Reef Trail.  You will find ancient rock carvings known as petroglyphs which were carved by the Taino Indians.
