My wife and I have become quite enamored with St. Croix. What a great and unknown dive destination. We've been to the other Virgins (including the BVIs) and like them.....well except for St. Thomas, but the diving and just about everything was better on St. Croix. Wish we'd known about it before. We've now been there three times in the past two years. The shop we used, SCUBA even has a travel page on their website. It's an easy flight from Tampa, where we live but using their site we saved quite a bit over booking with American directly. I just looked at 5 days from Philadelphia in late July and you can do it for around $600 each then just add your diving in. We've stayed at three different places there and love Sand Castle hotel. It's very laid back, on a beautiful beach with good snorkeling, and the dive boat is right at the hotel. I think they just added the boat there in the past year as they weren't diving there when we first went. The dive shop is St. Croix Ultimate Bluewater Adventures which is a great new way of spelling out SCUBA. If you like that you'll their dog who's name is SCUBA. I don't remember what it stood for but it was latin and translated to something like a dog being man's best friend.
