The Virgin Islands have a long history of being a PRIME SHOPPING
DESTINATION. In the 1700 and 1800’s the islands were key
locations for trade. The calm and natural harbors found in the
Virgin Islands were inviting to boats of all kinds. Merchants
dominated Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas and Christiana, St. Croix.
The free trade rules of the time meant traders from all nations
could sell their wares in the Virgin Islands without being affected
by disputes in Europe. Today the tradition of beautiful location
and great shopping continues.
The Islands bustling ports are still line with goods from
all over the world. In the yesteryears warehouses lined
the streets and alleys– today these warehouses have been renovated
into plush air-conditioned boutiques and shops that showcase
everything from precious stones and jewelry to electronics, art
and souvenirs.
