At the west end of the island of St. Croix is where you can experience the town of Frederiksted. Once known for dangerous pirate raids and assaults from imperialist nations, Frederiksted is a peaceful vacationers dream today. Frederick is made up of 7 streets by 7 streets and is one of only two deep water ports. St. Croix itself is the largest island of the three main islands and is rich in heritage of ancient Indian civilizations along with many historic buildings since its discovery by Columbus on his second voyage of exploration in 1493 at Salt River. In August of 2008 nearly 2 acres of land can go for $325,000 with 200 feet of beautiful waterfront. Build your own Custom Home!
In contrast, a 1 bedroom 2 bath condominium can sell for $110,000. Also in August of 2008, we found an excellent example of island living with this 3 bedroom 1,450 square feet home in Frederiksted for $199,000. Just a darling home built in 1975. Rentals in Frederiksted come in all shapes and sizes. You can rent a house, condo, apartment. For a day a week or month to month.

History - Frederiksted was named for Frederick the V who purchased what was then the Danish West Indies in 1754. The locals call it Freedom City for the 1848 emancipation of slaves on the islands. Thirty years later the town was destroyed by fire but later restored during the Victorian age which is reflected in some of the beautiful historic architecture which is Frederiksted. In all, there have been seven different countries that have held the rains of St. Croix; Spain, England, Holland, France, Knights of Malta, Denmark and lastly the United States.
Some of the structures you can visit are; Fort Frederik, St. Paul´s Anglican Church, St. Patrick´s Catholic Church, Apothecary, Customs House and many more. The best way to see Frederiksted in just one day is through a walking tour which starts at the Emancipation Park. The park itself is something to see with its small paths weaving in and out of dozens of large Mahogany trees and fragrant flowers.

The quaint little village is home to nearly 800 residents and stays quiet most of the time. That is, until a cruise ship docks and brings vacationers looking for local taxis driving to great meals, and lovely shopping. A glorious time is had by all during the Festival Celebration. The festival starts with a parade on December 1st and ends with a children´s parade on January 4th. In between are live music, a pageant for the crowning of the Duchess, calypso music, Mr. and Miss St. Croix Pageant, Coney Island rides, musical concerts and New Year´s Eve celebration. Frederiksted is also closer to the airport then Christiansted. The small town is also deep into the revitalization of many areas around town, such as, the marine facility, the Clock Tower, Strand Street and Veterans Park.

Weather at St. Croix´s Frederiksted doesn't´t change much. There is only a 10 degree difference between the winter and summer here. Nor is there extreme weather in this small town. You can have custom wood carvings done by the local wood workers and have it shipped to your home. Visit the rain forest and the 150 foot dam.
