I just got back from USVI, St. Croix. I was installing medical equipment. I enjoyed my time off, but remember I am a big guy (6'3 and 275 pounds) so the locals steered clear. This is a poor country, with bad road, lot's of crime and no hope for 50 per cent of the people. So a little about my trip...
Positive....
1. Great Scuba site
2. Reasonable food (ocean side)
3. Cheap Duty Free stuff
4. Great weather and warm temps
Negative...
1. Don't get hurt there ( I worked in the Hospitals)
2. Lock all your doors, walk in group...high crime rate
3. No public beaches and most private beaches suck
4. Flying in and out really suck due to customs
5. For you druggies...not going to happen
6. Roads suck, taxi suck, don't even think about a rental car..
Now for the pics....
enjoy,
