Introduction To The U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI)

We recommend the following visitor-oriented USVI websites:
http://www.vinow.com Virgin Islands Now - Explore the Islands
This site offers a massive amount of information in an easy to navigate layout. It has everything you might want to know about the islands and includes a discussion board and photo album. Whilst it provides a comprehensive listing of accommodations and restaurants etc it doesn't carry individual information for, or links to, these establishments.
http://www.usvitourism.vi/ is a website as pleasing on the eye as it is full with information! Info about the islands, where to stay, what to do, vacation offers, how to get around as well as event planning...
http://www.usvi.net/ is a site with good all-round information on the U.S Virgin Islands with a visitor guide that includes information on accommodation, yachting, restaurants, maps as well as news, business and government office info.
One site that does provide further information and individual details is the "Metropolitan Networks' hotel listings for the U.S. Virgin Islands!" which can be found at http://usvi.hotelguide.net Again there are no links to indivdual establishments but this site does allow you to narrow down your choices.
Wiki - detailed background information on the US Virgin Islands with info ranging from history to politics to district boundaries! A good read, especially if you want to earn points as an USVI officionado!
