This place makes fantastic sandwiches to take with you to the beach. Try the Cubano, spicy (it isn't all that spicy), and you will be in heaven!

Parks & Nature
You can't come to St. Croix and not see the rare underwater U.S. National Park! The snorkeling is amazing on the snorkel trail and the beach side is also fantastic. You also never know what you are going to see on the way out, we've seen and swam with Dolphins and saw Whales although these are rare treats. Book a boat trip with Big Beards Adventure Tours and you'll have a great time!

Entertainment & Activities
Somehow we ended up with a really nice movie theater on this small island. Catch a movie in Caribbean Xtreme Cinemas for Dolby Atmos sound and a huge screen that will rival or beat what you are used to back home. Prices are also really cheap compared to the states with tickets under $10 most of the time.
