General Information: Learn about the territory’s weather, language, flora and fauna, government, infrastructure, history, transportation, hospitals, activities and more!

Visit both the St. Thomas and St. Croix campuses of the University of the Virgin Islands. Island Tours: Take tours of St. Croix, St. Thomas, St. John and Water Island by air and land.

Finding an apartment, work, yard sales, used cars and other similar information and classified ads is often a matter of flipping through the local paper, so a copy of the St. Thomas Daily News, St. Croix Avis and the weekly Island Trader (a newspaper filled mostly with classifieds and short articles) are included. The Houses Real Estate Magazine, which covers all of the U.S. Virgin Islands, will help you get a feel for real estate options and find realtors.
And Visitor's Booklets for the U.S. Virgin Islands. Read through these and learn about recreational activities, beaches, watersports, local activities, art, history and other topics; because the things vacationers come to the U.S. Virgin Islands to enjoy are the very same things residents enjoy on weekends and when off from work.
