FAQs
Question
Are passports required to travel to the United States Virgin Islands?
Answer
Passports for U.S. Citizens are NOT required for the U.S. Virgin Islands, but you must be prepared to show evidence of citizenship upon leaving the territory (such as a government-issued photo ID or your passport). Citizens of countries other than the U.S. should follow U.S. travel regulations. THIS BEING SAID, PLEASE BRING YOUR PASSPORT, AS YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO PRESENT AN OFFICAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE ALONG WITH YOUR GOVERNMENT ISSUED PHOTO ID IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A PASSPORT.
Question
What identification can a U.S. citizen use to enter the United States Virgin Islands?
Answer
Even though you are not required to have a passport to travel to the U.S. Virgin Islands, you may want to take a passport versus having to carry the two forms of identification needed for departing the U.S. Virgin Islands. U.S. citizens do not need a passport when entering the U.S. Virgin Islands, according to the official U.S. Virgin Islands passport requirements, but you may be required to show proof of citizenship (raised-seal birth certificate and valid government-issued ID card such as a driver’s license) when departing the U.S. Virgin Islands of St. Thomas, St. Croix, and St. John.

Question
What is the weather like in St. Croix?
Answer
In April/May, the daily high temperatures are around 84°F, rarely falling below 82°F or exceeding 87°F. Daily low temperatures are around 73°F to 75°F, rarely falling below 70°F or exceeding 78°F. Blue skies and mild temperatures make April and May perfect for spending time on the beach, going snorkeling, or playing a round of golf. Another benefit of visiting during April is the scuba diving conditions. The waters tend to be much calmer during this time and there’s a higher chance of good visibility. As a result, you’ll have a much better chance of spotting aquatic life. You won’t have to worry about getting seasick on the boat, either.
