The museum guide lady was very helpful and answered any questions that was needed. It's actually a small museum but we stayed there a bit longer than most.

I recommend checking them out if this is your sort of thing.

This was better than I thought! Came here as a combo ticket with the skylift (found no savings by…read morebuying the combo). The museum starts either a quick video explaining what you're about to see. Then the doors open and you walk into a well done exhibit hall. Exhibits include vases, weapons, tools and coins found from various shipwrecks. The centerpiece is the Odyssey which is an in underwater robot used to collect artifacts. There is a second floor accessible by a slow elevator or stairs which tells a little bit about some of the pirates in the area. There are a few photo spots, hands on exhibits and a hurricane simulator with wind speeds up to 75 mph. I felt the $20 admission fee was reasonable compared to the $30 for the skylift. The museum is located next to the skylift and about a 15 minute walk from the cruise ships.

Definitely worth a stop. We were headed to the Leinster Bay Trail and toured the plantation ruins…read moreas our starting point. The buildings are beautifully architected stone structures. I loved the many arches and curves of the buildings. The views were outstanding as your height allows you to look out to the British VI. The placards do a good job of also reminding all that the plantation was built off of enslaved people's labor. A distressing part of our history. We saw several deer and even experienced a rain shower in the short time we were there. A must see when on St John.

It is a decent walk from the parking lot to the entrance so there is a drop off right out front for those who can't make the trek. There was no one in the booth and we were the only ones there the whole time. There space is not super big, but was fun for my kids to explore and climb. There are a few areas they ask you not to climb, but for the most part, it was free reign. The signs were informative and we were there about 30 minutes. There were also signs warning us about bees, but we did not see any during our visit.

This fort, which is located in the heart of Frederiksted on the West side of St Croix, is also…read moreknown as Frederiksfort. This Danish Fort was built between 1752 and 1760 to defend their economic interest from sea attacks. It has bright red and white walls, which are contrast to the yellow and white walls of its sister fort, Fort Christiansvaern. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in1996. The Fort was site of some significant events including the Emancipation Revolt of 1848, the 1878 Labor Riot and Fire burn, and one of the 1917 ceremonies transferring the Virgin Islands to the US. It costs $5 to tour the fort and they only take MasterCard and cash. I had neither, so I had to run to a nearby ATM to get some cash out. The fort has some exhibits set up in some of it rooms. Some of the exhibits include sea glass, the acquisition of the Virgin Islands, the slave trade, a replica of the Commandant's Quarters decorated with furniture from that period, architecture for that period, and slave revolts. You will find some cannons that were used for the fort's defense along the waterfront. It looks like they are pointing at the cruise ship pier. $5 is not a lot of money for a museum entry fee and this is about the right amount for this place. As a bonus, you will find free parking in a lot across the street by the playground and there is also free street parking available. The fort is in pretty bad shape and is in need of some major restoration and renovations. The exhibits are ok. Some of them, especially the slavery ones were damaged by a hurricane, are faded, and very hard to read. There is also very poor lighting in the slavery exhibit area. They do have some nice artifacts in the exhibits such as shackles, wooden fences from the era, and whips. A lot of the fort is outdoors and even though the exhibit rooms are indoors, converted from rooms in the actual Fort, there is no air conditioning. So, it can get kind of hot. With that being said, you may want to bring some water. This place is OK. I spent about 45 minutes here. It is nowhere near as well preserved as Fort Christiansvaern, but it does have more exhibits than that fort though. It is a cool place to check out for history buffs or if you are in the area. There are a ton of other attractions in the immediate area to see including Buddhoe Park, the freedom statues, Frederiksted beach and a very nice playground.
