The U.S Territories (St. Thomas, St. John and St. Croix) and the British Virgin Islands (to the north and east) are among the most beautiful geographical areas in the world, blessed with powdery beaches and sun drenched weather.

The islands lie in the path of soft trade-winds blowing di-rect from Portugal, which perhaps accounts for the fact that “Santa Cruz” was among the first islands to be sighted by Christopher Columbus on his second voyage westward. He then sailed northeast, passing St Thomas, St John and Tor-tola and called them collectively “Las Virgenes”.

After his visit, the islands went back to sleep for more than a hundred and fifty years. They woke to find the flag of Den-mark planted on St. Thomas, the French Tricolor on St. Croix and the Union Jack flying over Tortola (where it still flies). The Arawak Indian population had disappeared. Denmark later claimed St. John, bought St. Croix and built the Dan-ish West Indies into thriving sugar cane and trading islands. Slaves were imported early to work the growing number

of sugar planta-tions. The islands were also used as a base for re-ship-ment of slaves to other areas.

history

about the virgin islands

24

Fort Christian

The “Coal Ladies” Market Square

After the Danish abolished slavery in 1848, planters began to abandon their estates and the population and economy dwin-dled.

Threatened by German expansion during World War I, the U.S. bought the Danish West Indies (now the American Virgin Is-lands) on March 31, 1917. Even then the islands were expen-sive real estate – almost $300 an acre.

In 1927, residents were granted U.S. citi-zenship. Until 1931, the islands were ad-ministered by the U.S. Navy. Then they were placed under the Department of the Interior with a Governor appointed by the President. A locally elected legislature (15 members from all three islands) has oper-ated since 1852 but it wasn’t until 1970 that islanders could vote for their own Governor, and in 1972, a delegate to the U.S Congress. Though U.S. citizens, resi-dents have no vote in national elections. Nor does the Washington representative have a vote on the floor of the house.

duty freeshopping

No visitor to the U. S. Virgin Islands returns home with-out doing a little shopping. Who can resist the best duty-free shopping in the Caribbean? With an allow-ance of $1,600—double that of other Caribbean islands — U.S. residents, including children, can enjoy the shop-ping experience without thought of duty or taxes.

Members of a family residing in one household and traveling together may make a joint declaration. For example, a couple traveling with two children may bring articles free of duty valued up to $6,400.

You may send gifts to friends and relatives (excluding tobacco and alcohol), but no more than one package per day to the same address—up to $100 in value. These items need not be declared.

Perfume, jewelry, tobacco (you can take up to 5 car-tons of cigarettes), cameras, crystal, china and elec-tronics are available for 30-60% off U.S. prices. If you’d like to take advantage of our great prices on liquor, take back up to 5 (1 litre) bottles, as long as one is made in the Virgin Islands (such as Cruzan Rum).

Buy as much as you want of anything island-made; fashions, perfume (St. John’s Bay Rum), straw hats, jewelry, as they are custom exempt; and loose pre-cious gems (diamonds, rubies, sapphires, tanzanites, alexandrites and emeralds) are also duty-free.

28

You get the break and it’s only for those who shop in the U.S. Virgin Islands. Your tax-free allowance dou-bles when you spend it in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

As a duty-free port, St. Thomas has a number of sleek, modern jewelry stores. Head to Main Street in the heart of historic Charlotte Amalie and wander the fine shops, admiring the Danish colonial architecture as well as the treasures housed inside. Whether you are looking for something specific or something in-gen-eral, you will find it here. You might have to check out a few shops but you will eventually find what you are looking for.

If diamonds and gold are not for you then be sure to look for the vast collections of fine sterling silver jew-elry found in most jewelry stores.

Charlotte Amalie (Downtown)The discerning shopper will be absolutely delighted in the selection of merchandise displayed in all of the “Down-town” stores. This may be the most famous shopping district in the Caribbean. Main Street is lined on both sides of the street with duty-free stores. You will encounter a lot of jew-elry stores but you can also find duty-free liquor, perfume, fashion and souvenir retailers interspersed. You can venture down the side streets and historic alleys to find many oth-er types of stores. Lovely old warehouses, built from yellow bricks carried across the Atlantic ocean on colonial trading ships, line the alleys of the shopping district.

Havensight Shopping MallWith its location right on the WICO Cruise Ship dock, Haven-sight Mall is a convenient, less crowded way to go shopping for the duty-free purchases that you may be looking for. All of the major retailers have well stocked stores with the same merchandise and prices as downtown. And if you make a pur-chase in a Havensight Merchants’ Association member store, your purchases will be 100% guaranteed! Look for the Associ-ation logo on the doors of the member merchants.

Yacht Haven GrandeLocated within walking distance to the Havensight Mall and the West Indian Company cruise ship dock is the home of up-scale international and local retailers and restaurants. If you are going to town have your taxi, on the way back to the dock, let you off there. Some of the upscale boutiques are: Louis Vuit-ton, Gucci, Bulgari, BCBG, White House Black Market, Coach.

Crown Bay CenterThis shopping area, located on the Crown Bay Cruise Ship dock, features duty free shops and vendors of local arts and crafts. You will find many of the same stores as you will find Downtown.

All beaches in the Virgin Islands are open to the public. A few have dressing facilities and showers – Coki (at Coral World) and Magen’s Bay on St. Thomas; Cinnamon and Trunk Bay on St. John. It is advisable to leave valuables on the ship unless you have a plastic container to take them along on your swim or snorkel. Avoid the mid-day sun. Start out with a 20 minute exposure with suntan lotion on your first few days.

COKI BEACH - Noted for its tran-quil turquoise waters, Coki Beach has great snorkeling and scuba diving. Take your first scuba lesson from Coki Beach Dive Center located on the beach. You will find chair rentals, beach waiters serving

drinks and vendors selling t-shirts, sunblock, art work, bags, towels and more! If you want to see the marine life without getting wet, visit Coral World right next door.

MAGENS BAY BEACH - Named one of the world’s most beautiful beaches, Magens Bay, the larg-est beach on St. Thomas, offers changing rooms, bathrooms and outdoor showers. You can buy pizza, burgers and dogs along with tropical drinks at their

restaurant. You can rent chairs and floats from the Boutique (great selections of beachwear and water toys). A water sports opera-tion rents paddle boats, kayaks, SUP’s and sunfish. There is a $5 per person entrance fee to this public beach. continued...

MORNINGSTAR BEACH - is the main beach for the French-man’s Reef and Morningstar Resorts. The watersports op-eration offers paddle boats, kayaks, sailboats, jet skis and more. Chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear and floats are

available for rent. A beachside restaurant and bar lies con-veniently at water’s edge along with a fun island boutique “Coco Jones”.

SAPPHIRE BEACH - Windsurfing lessons, snorkeling, beach chairs and umbrella rentals are just some of the available amenities. Water is for the most part calm and the snor-keling is quite good to either side of the beach. A great

beach for learning windsurfing as typically the wind blows towards the beach making the return sail a breeze!

LINDQUIST BEACH - Located on the East End of St Thomas charges an entrance fee ($3). It is a very natural beach lined along the shore with indig-enous plants and trees with no development within sight. Very popular with the locals. Long, fine, white, sand beach

with calm, pristine, crystal blue water. A beautiful Caribbean beach!
