Tourism

Watch and see the beauty that lies beneath me. As you can see the cruise ship that docked at Fredericksted Dock or as we call it "Big Dock". When I see cruise ships I think to myself and imagine how St. Croix look to them. On my way home, I stopped and talked to a tourist from Grenada. She told me that St. Croix looks more beautiful than how she saw it in pictures on the Internet. She also said her favorite part of St. Croix are the beaches. There is no reason to be down at our island. Because it has people that will take it from us any day. As you can see, the island is improving with water parks, hotels, restaurants, and malls. More and more we think that our island is just a island but we are more than that to tourist.

Pre-Columbus Residents on St. Croix

This photo resembles how The Pre-Columbus Residents on St. Croix used to look back in the year of their lifetime.
There is an exhibit located in The Frederiksted Fort.

This is the Poisonous Fruit called Manchineel (Man-CHin-eel). The Indians, including the Calinas (Carib Indians) and Tainos used this apple to defend themselves against Christopher Columbus and his men. 


Did you know St. Croix was the first place The "Old World" meet The "New World"?
