National Parks, Wildlife Refuges and Wilderness Areas
Buck Island National Wildlife Refuge Located off the coast of Charlotte Amalie in St. Thomas, accessible by boat only, Buck Island is a snorkeler's dream.
Buck Island Reef National Monument Two-thirds of this monument is surrounded by elkhorn coral, and an underwater snorkeling trail is maintained by the National Park Service, ensuring a pristine environment for many years to come.
Sandy Point National Wildlife Refuge Another St. Croix park, this one home to the largest nesting ground of leatherback sea turtles under U.S. jurisdiction.
Virgin Islands National Park This park accounts for almost 3/5 of the lushly beautiful St. John, where the most elegant of resorts coexist with the fragile ecological balance of the area.
