A two-hour flight southeast of Miami, The US Virgin Islands offer a Caribbean experience that's still part of the US.
The three distinctive US Virgin Islands are: sleepy St. Croix, bustling St. Thomas, (visited by many cruise ships), and St. John which is largely a National Park. The USVI offers white-sand beaches, super snorkeling, colonial towns and forts, duty-free shops; resorts range from upscale to "upscale camping".
