Cruz Bay has a distinctive atmosphere that sets it apart from anywhere else in the U.S. Virgin Islands, which is a perfect combination of West Indian tradition and contemporary attitudes.

The locals who live their permanently are supplemented by a cosmopolitan mix of predominantly European and American tourists, many of whom, attracted to the quietly exotic, yet comfortably familiar Cruz Bay, visit there every year.

It is home to most of the Island's restaurants, bars, stores and dive centers, and pretty much every visitor to St. Johns spend at least a little time there. However, despite being the St. John's center of commerce, it would definitely still be called quiet rather than busy.

The pace of life there is considerably slower than in a U.S. or European coastal town, and tourists cannot help but be influenced by the Cruz Bay vibe, making it easy to forget about work and the pressures of your day to day life.

The restaurants there offer first class fine dining, and you can sample truly exquisite Caribbean cuisine at any of the many beachfront restaurants. As for bars, there is a quiet buzz about them, which creates a pleasurable atmosphere for relaxing, talking and drinking.

If you fancy a day or two away from the multitude of beautiful, secluded, scenic beaches that are located just 5-20 minutes away from Cruz Bay, then you can hike through the Virgin Islands National Park, rent a jeep and ride around the Island, or browse the quaint shops that line the alleys and backstreets of the town.

Alternatively, you can indulge in some of the wide variety of water sports activities available. Scuba and snorkel tours to offshore reefs are very popular, as are parasailing and jet ski tours.

Whatever you choose to do with your day, you can be sure that the weather will not be a hindrance, as the weather in Cruz Bay ranges is nearly always excellent.
