St. George Village Botanical Garden

You can stroll amid the ruins of this 17-acre estate, a former 19th-century sugarcane plantation village, which contains varied ecosystems from semi-arid cactus to lush green rain forest.

We stopped here for a couple of hours of history and botany. Amidst the ruins of an old sugar plantation, grows a garden full of plants brought to St. Croix by the various waves of settlers on the island. The ruins and the excellent map and guide tell the story of the plantation, the enslaved workers and the others who lived here. Most plants are identified with their common and Latin names.

Estate Mount Washington Plantation

Reviewed By D5kd

The road in is quite long and in poor shape dirt road with lots of potholes. But if you are comfortable with that it is worth the drive in. An off the beaten path destination no cost of admission and really worth seeing.

Reviewed By ontheroadagain65 - Garden City, United States

A very beautiful memorial park, along the water near the pier. It's a great place to catch the sunset. We also saw a rainbow one morning, while eating breakfast.

Rust Op Twist Sugar Mill

Reviewed By 232larap

I am already booking a trip back to Rust Op Twist this spring. The property is filled with history, the sound of the surf, the magical water, brain coral littering the beach... the sugar mill and ruins have the same paths walked by those who worked there hundreds of years earlier. The cottage is a perfect island home, quiet, bright, and a great place to escape to. We did yoga up at the sugar mill every morning - jt was incredible. The hosts are an amazing family who are eager to share the beautiful history of the property with you. I highly recommend this property.
