Rolling green slopes, swaying palms and powdery beaches set the scene in America’s little corner of the Caribbean. More than 2 million tourists a year visit the U.S. Virgin Islands, flocking here for the tropical climate, duty-free bargains and diving beneath warm, crystal-clear seas. Sites feature lush reefs, walls and intact wrecks that shelter more than 500 species of fish. Nondivers can snorkel atop coral gardens, visit an aquarium or tour the reefs on a 65 ft submarine. This book describes 53 of the territory’s best dive sites, with full-color photos throughout.
