The largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Croix is a picturesque escape, with rolling hills, charming Old World towns, and a dense, 15-acre tropical forest. It features top-notch beaches, exceptional recreational activities, wonderful dining, and unique attractions like Buck Island Reef National Monument and Whim Plantation, a cultural landmark that was once a Danish sugar plantation.
St. Croix has both suffered and prospered at the hands of many nations and privateers since 1493, when Christopher Columbus made his landfall at Salt River on his second voyage to the new world. The flags of Spain, England, Holland, France, Knights of Malta, Denmark, and the United States have all flown over the island. Consequently, St. Croix has had many different names. "AyAy" was the name given to it by the Caribe Indians around 900 A.D. The Spaniards then renamed it Santa Cruz. The French changed it to Saint Croix when they occupied the island. The English reverted to Santa Cruz during their short occupation. And the Danes, again, called it Saint Croix- the name has held since the 18th century.
