The work of more than 30 local vendors can be viewed at the La-Grange Marketplace, which opened on St. Croix last month.
St. Croix has long been overshadowed by hip, urban St. Thomas and eco-touristy St. John. But now, with its heritage trail a self-guided tour that links ecological sites, scenic views, places of cultural and historical significance and a swanky new casino (the only one in the USVI), St. Croix is coming into its own.
If you think a cow is just a cow, then youre in for a lesson at Castle Nugent Farms on St. Croix's south coast. The 1,00-acre farm, which also features a guesthouse by the same name, is home to 500 Senepol cattle, a breed unique to the island.
Head out to St. Croixs east end for a taste of the islands flashiest new project, the Divi Carina Bay Resort & Casino the first and only casino in the USVI, offering everything from blackjack to Caribbean stud poker, craps and roulette, as well as video poker games and hundreds of slot machines.

The typical standards from Denmark turn sassy when they meet island spices on St. Croix.
