St. Thomas hosts a variety of activist and fundraising activities throughout the year, including many foot races of varying lengths and difficulty levels.
Also, the annual Against the Tide Breast Cancer Swim is held in the waters surrounding St. Thomas.
Visitors are able to travel between the islands to enjoy all the festivities offered by St. Thomas, Water Island, St. Criox and St. John. The nearby and still relatively secluded Water Island holds a Classic Music Festival during February.
February visitors can make a day of it seeing the sights of Charlotte Amalie, the former capital of the Danish West Indies, on an island-approved self-guided walking tour.
On this course that is mapped out for walkers, one will view Fort Christian, the Legislature Building, Emancipation Park, the Grand Hotel, the Lutheran Church, Hotel 1829, and the 99 Steps. Each landmark is rich with its own individual history, and, on a self-guided tour, you can spend as much or as little time at each attraction as you prefer.
Those vacationing with families will find Blackbeard's Castle an excellent attraction as it has activities for children of any age. Adults will enjoy the castle as well.
