United States Virgin Islands

The United States Virgin Islands occupy a compact arc of the northeastern Caribbean, where turquoise water meets steep volcanic hillsides draped in dry tropical forest. Three main islands — St. Croix, St. Thomas, and St. John — each carry a distinct character shaped by Danish colonial architecture, American governance, and deep Afro-Caribbean culture.
