April is always the month where our island showcases its creative (and very tasty) cuisines via our annual St. Croix Food and Wine Experience – personally one of my favorite times of the year! St. Croix is really starting to make a name for itself as the epicurean island of the Caribbean. A recent article from Frommers.com mentioned that “ [St. Croix] is the earthy big mama—and it’s having a moment.” They further wrote that “the island is turning to the land once more in a farm-to-fork movement that's a rousing revival of St. Croix's agrarian heritage,” thus making St. Croix an appealing vacation destination for foodies.
And, after a month of eating and celebrating food, we changed gears (literally) in early May where we cheered on cyclists, runners and swimmers during St. Croix’s Ironman 70.3 Triathlon.
St. Croix is also making headlines in the New York Times! This excellent article, front and center in the travel section, details the influence our island had on young Alexander Hamilton: The West Indian Island That Shaped Alexander Hamilton.
Lately, we have seen more and more articles about St. Croix popping up on the web, whether the topic is our culinary scene or fascinating history – the secret is out!
For a small island, we sure have a lot going on! Want to see what else is happening in St. Croix, then check out our May Newsletter!
