Fort Christian played an important defensive role over the years. Now a historic attraction, you can only imagine some of the scenes its mighty walls have witnessed.

This history-filled fortress is often on the itineraries of visitors to St. Thomas. But Fort Christian isn't the area's only highlight. Magens Bay Beach, Coki Point Beach, and Blackbeard's Castle are some other worthwhile sights nearby.

8/10 Very Good! (1,353 reviews)

Thoroughly enjoyed my visit. The only cons were: 1. The beachfront at Margaritaville was dirty and full of seaweed! Can’t get in the water at the resort. 2. We were there for 5 days, and they never cleaned the room. Otherwise, nice resort and great activities each night!
