St. Croix is an oasis of beauty, clean waters, pearly white sand and treasures to find. One of the historic landmarks found within St. Croix is the easternmost point of the United States; not by longitude but by travel. The landmark is called Point Udall and is named after Stewart Udall who was the United States Secretary of the Interior under both John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson.
Above Point Udall a sundial was built to commemorate the new Millennium in the year 2000. The sundial is known as the Millennium Monument. To get to the sundial from the Point, one must travel a difficult path comprised of volcanic rock. The locals warn tourists that this path is moderately difficult to travel and to use care when visiting the Monument. But the path is worth traveling for Point Udall and the Monument are full of history and significance for the United States and are absolutely meaningful and profound when seen.
Another sight to see is not so beautiful but very important to the people of St. Croix. It is one of the largest oil refineries in the world. It's called the Hovensa Oil Refinery and rumor has it that the refinery is owned by a Venezuela Oil Refinery company. The people of St. Croix find much employment there and when asked the answer is always one of hush-hush. It is a sight worth seeing and will startle one in its size.
Columbus's Landing is found in Salt River Bay in St. Croix. This is the location where Columbus made land fall in 1493. It is also the sight of the first clash between the Europeans and the Americans. It is an historical place to go visit when in St. Croix.
