Anchorage:  Only approach in daylight due to route needed through reef cuts.  Anchored in 15 feet in Christiansted Harbor.  5 minute dinghy ride to boardwalk downtown.  Anchorage described as rolly but seemed comfortable.  Sea turtles visible from boat.

Fuel & water:  Fuel and water available at St Croix Marine.  (good chandlery on site too)

Laundry/Groceries:  Laundry and groceries within walking distance of marina ($5 daily dinghy charge) and longer walk from boardwalk.  Laundry also available on Prince St closer to boardwalk.

Things to do:  historic downtown easily walkable.  Car rental recommended for island tour though taxis and buses available.  Buck Island just a couple of miles north of island.  Did not dive though plenty of dive operations on site.

Restaurants & Bars:

  • Angry Nates:  good for breakfast or dinner, right on boardwalk, can park dinghy in front
  • Shupes:  good happy hour deals, fresh wahoo as fish & chips
  • Savant:  fine dining, highly recommend the wine list as well as the daily specials
  • Nauti Grille:  amazing BBQ that you will smell when you walk in the door
  • Pollys:  tasty and spicy wraps and salads on the Fredericksted waterfront
