10 Things to do Adventurous in St. Croix That You Shouldn't Miss

March 5, 2022 Tonie Szymanski

Isn’t it romantic? The Caribbean island of St. Croix is practically the backdrop of a Hollywood love story. White sand beaches and lush rainforests set the scene for tropical bliss. Take in the historic small town charm of Christiansted and Frederiksted, sip your way through a spirited tour of the Cruzan Rum Distillery or explore the ruins of a sugar plantation. And the diving…oh, the diving. Think shipwrecks, think vibrant ocean life, think endless underwater possibilities.

We had an awesome time with Equus Rides and Cowboy Steve!! My 12 year old daughter Olivia and I rode 2 very experienced, gentle, easy to ride horses, Dublin and Genji, his best friend who absolutely loves to swim in the water!!! Cowboy Steve is extremely knowledgeable and entertaining as he describes the island history and interesting facts about the local flora and fauna. The horses managed the coral on the beach and in the water very well with no problem. What an awesome experience, I cannot even describe the feeling of riding a horse as it swims through the water!!!! This is something I’ve wanted to do my entire life and I’m so happy I was able to include my daughter. It was an absolute highlight of our trip and I can’t thank you enough for the experience!!!! ❤️

Gecko's Island Adventures

Our ATV tour lasts approximately 1 1/2 hours and covers 13 miles of tropical terrain. It begins by riding along the west end coast line before heading up into the hills. We make a stop at an overlook that gives you fantastic views of the north shore. As we continue, we make our way to the top of Mt. Stewart where you get amazing vistas of the surrounding area. We visit plantation ruins from the early 1800's where you get time to explore and take photographs. From there we descend through the Sub-Tropical Rain Forest before ending the tour at a Rainbow Beach.
