Things to do in Christiansted, St. Croix: The Best Sights & Landmarks

November 9, 2021 Timmy Ribble

If you love the beach, but also want a little culture, you'll love Christiansted, one of St. Croix's two waterfront towns. Historic churches, charming courtyards, shaded walkways, stone arches, antique lampposts and rows of restored townhouses add to the city's appeal. Relax on a tranquil, white sand beach or float in the aquamarine water. Enjoy the many shops, boutiques, galleries, cafes and restaurants, or visit attractions like Fort Christianvaern, the Customs House and the Old Scale House.

Judith's Fancy

These impressive ruins of the 17th-century chateau, once home to the governor of the Knights of Malta, are collectively named "Judith" after the first name of a woman who is buried on the property.

Rainy day needed some activity so stopped at this nice neighborhood to go for a scenic walk. Sign in at the gate and walk in - do a large loop and can view the bay and the ocean side. You will see some homes still left damaged by the hurricanes as well.

Fort Christiansvaern

An imposing yellow Danish fort built to defend the Christiansted harbor.

We found the history of this fort to be so interesting, and although some exhibits were closed due to Covid and renovations, the park ranger told us all about the fort and gave us a binder to do a self-guided tour. The fort is beautifully maintained and includes a dungeon. The history of the fort and the island itself is very sad, but this is a great place to learn about it. Right now, there is no admission fee, but that will obviously change in the future. Parking is free in the small lot next door.
