What's great about Frederiksted cruises?
The town of Frederiksted is on the west coast of St. Croix, the biggest of the US Virgin Islands. In true Caribbean island fashion, this place serves up plenty of A-grade beaches for you to flake out on. The most popular belt of sand is Frederiksted Beach, where the sand’s as white as flour and the water’s as warm as a bath. What’s more, it’s watched over by the town’s leading landmark, Fort Frederik. This 250-year-old stronghold was built to ward off pirates in the 1700s. It’s now a museum, where you can look at weapons that were used during a slave revolt that rocked the town in 1848.
- Browse the town’s waterfront shops for gold bracelets, bottles of rum and nautical-themed pottery.
- Rip across the water in Frederiksted Harbour on a jet-ski. There are plenty of watersports centres dotted along the coast, meaning you’ve got lots of opportunities to get your adrenaline pumping.
- Just so you know, ESTAs are required when visiting The US Virgin Islands. To find out more please visit the ESTA website
