St. Thomas is an island in the Caribbean Sea that, with two others, forms the U.S. Virgin Islands, and it is the midsized one of its sister islands. It is just over 31 square miles, and it is home to the territorial capital, Charlotte Amalie.
Blackbeard’s Castle is in the port city, Charlotte Amalie. It is the Skytsborg Historical Park, and it is located on a five acre hilltop; discover the treasure of the historical properties, or just take in the rich view. Swim in one of the three swimming pools, or wander through the largest collection of life-sized pirate sculptures. Walk where pirates ambled! Loot the castle for lifelong memories!
The Buck Island National Wildlife Refuge contains over 45 acres with remarkable reefs, and a shipwreck. The refuge was created due to the importance of its habitat for migratory birds. It is a great site for boaters, snorkelers, and divers; Buck Island National Wildlife Refuge is easily reachable via catamaran, and it is just two miles from St. Thomas. There is a lighthouse on the refuge which is still maintained by the U.S. Coast Guard. Go gently into the seascapes, and enjoy the amazing marine life.
Don’t forget to take time to rise above it all! Take the Skyride to Paradise Point, and rise above Charlotte Amalie 700 ft.! The sky tram provides the path to Paradise Point with its “ride with a view,” and instructs you about the meaning of limin’ (hanging around, enjoying the scene).
