The 10 Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands

September 11, 2021 Esmeralda Fenner

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.

I go to St. Croix annually and this is my first shopping stop always! Unique, one of a kind jewelry designed and crafted by the owner. I have been complimented on every piece I've bought here and look forward to his new designs. His "knot" jewelry is quite unique-never saw anything anywhere else like it. You can get silver or gold and special order anything you'd like. He has made me charms, bracelets and rings from Chaney, shells and black coral. AND, anything you purchase you can return with and he will clean it! I can't wait until next year when I go to St. Croix again and see what new pieces he has concocted!

Franklin's on the Waterfront

Reviewed By 04042Traveler - Hollis Center, United States

My wife and I have been to St. Croix and always stop in for a visit. The shop at one time and under different management had an English Bulldog named Franklin. Franklin was a mascot in the store and would greet customers and just lounge around. We were sad to hear that Franklin is no longer with us but he is missed by many who stop by Franklin's on the Waterfront. The shop has many unique items, some expensive, some inexpensive, basically something for everyone. It's a great shop close to the cruise port and worth a visit. I would highly recommend.

By far THE BEST day spa on St. Croix! The staff is top notch and the service is even better. Spend the day relaxing with a massage by Ali, a wax with Kenya, then get a facial and lashes with Jordan. You’ll leave feeling like a brand new person! Thanks Pampered VI! I don’t know what I would do without you!
