Why Visit in March

March is an excellent time to discover the United States Virgin Islands, with warm sunshine, comfortable temperatures and a refreshing breeze from the sea. Whether you are staying on St Thomas, St John or St Croix, the islands offer a relaxed mix of beaches, history, nature and easy-going Caribbean life.

A guided tour is a great way to see more than the view from your resort. Local guides can share stories about the islands, point out quiet swimming spots and help you understand the culture that makes the US Virgin Islands distinctive. With plenty of tours available in March, it is easy to plan a holiday that suits your pace.

St Thomas Highlights

St Thomas is a lively starting point for March tours. Explore the historic streets and harbour of Charlotte Amalie, browse for local crafts and jewellery, or take a scenic drive to viewpoints above the island. The views across the Caribbean are particularly impressive from the higher roads, where green hills meet bright blue water.

Boat trips are another popular choice, with opportunities for swimming, snorkelling and spotting sea life in clear coastal waters. Some excursions visit nearby cays or include time on a quiet beach, making them ideal if you want to combine sightseeing with a few peaceful hours beside the sea.

Natural St John

St John is known for its unspoilt scenery and is a wonderful choice for travellers who enjoy walking and wildlife. Much of the island is protected within Virgin Islands National Park, where trails lead through tropical woodland to historic plantation ruins and beautiful coastal viewpoints.

Day tours from St Thomas commonly include a ferry crossing, giving you the chance to see the islands from the water before reaching St John. Spend time on beaches such as Trunk Bay, snorkel close to shore or simply enjoy the slower rhythm of an island where nature takes centre stage.

Discover St Croix

St Croix offers a different feel, with a fascinating blend of Danish colonial heritage, local traditions and wide-open coastal landscapes. In Christiansted and Frederiksted, you can learn about the island’s past while wandering among colourful buildings, old forts and welcoming cafés.

Island tours may also visit a rum distillery, a working farm or the scenic east end, where the landscape becomes drier and more dramatic. March is a comfortable month for exploring, so you can enjoy a full day of discovery before returning to the coast for a sunset meal.

Planning Your Tour

March is a popular month for holidays in the US Virgin Islands, so booking tours ahead is sensible, particularly for boat trips and excursions with limited places. Check what is included, such as hotel transfers, ferry tickets, meals and snorkelling equipment, before you confirm your plans.

Most importantly, leave room for an unplanned beach afternoon or a relaxed evening by the harbour. The best March holidays often combine a few well-chosen tours with plenty of time to enjoy the warm water, friendly atmosphere and natural beauty of the United States Virgin Islands.
