August on St. Croix
In August things slow way down in St. Croix. With temperatures sometimes climbing to 90 degrees, your time will be best spent limin' at the beach, floating in the clear Caribbean Sea or in the pool, snorkeling or diving! While there are only a few events on St. Croix in August, you can continue to enjoy some of the recurring monthly events.
