The U.S. Virgin Islands comprise St. Croix, St. Thomas, St. John and a cluster of 50 other tiny islands. And with weekly direct flights between MSP and St. Thomas (STT), it’s easier than ever to island-hop in the Caribbean, no passport needed. Influences from the native Taino people, Danish settlers and more recent American culture inspire the food, music and architecture. Exploring is best done by boat, and several ferry services or day charters will bring you closer to famous beaches, water recreation and wildlife. On St. John, Trunk Bay’s white sand and turquoise waters are the perfect setting for its snorkeling trail. St. Croix’s Sandy Point Beach is a nesting site for leatherback turtles, and its Point Udall is the easternmost point of the United States. Sample flight: $548 on Sun Country, Feb. 16-23.
