July continues the warm weather with highs in the high-80’s, so many Crucians spend their time in the beautiful blue waters of the Caribbean or lounging around the pool.
The 4th of July is celebrated on St. Croix with a stunning fireworks display after the sunsets in Frederiksted. July also offers one of Christiansted’s four annual Jump Up celebrations which line the streets of the historic town with vendors, food and live music as well as a parade and mocko jumbies.
July celebrates Mango Melee, the delicious namesake tropical fruit with games, contests and vendors at the beautiful St. George Village Botanical Gardens. You can also continue to enjoy a few of the recurring monthly events such as Rhythms at Sunset in Frederiksted.
