Shopping on St. Croix

Duty-free shopping on St. Croix is one the most popular pastimes on our island. It’s so much fun to roam the streets of our historical twin cities looking for special treasures and keepsakes to commemorate your time on St. Croix.
When jewelry shopping, is a must-visit boutique. Sonya’s Fine Island Jewelry has been a St. Croix mainstay since the 1960s. It’s known as “home of the original hook bracelet,” but also be sure to check out their earrings, necklaces, rings and pieces that embody the elements, flora and the power of the wind and the sea.
You will also find the gamut of fashion, especially beautiful leisure and tropical attire that abounds in our shop. Islands arts and crafts are a special way to take a piece of St. Croix home with you. Of course, no trip to St. Croix would be complete without souvenir bottles of our local and famous rums.
The best part of shopping is our duty free status. Each U.S. resident, including children, can take home $1,600 worth of duty-free goods bought in the U.S. Virgin Islands. When returning to the U.S. mainland you will be required to fill out a separate customs form for these items. You may be asked to show your receipts, so it is important to keep a good record of what you buy. This duty-free allowance is double the $800 limit from other islands. You may also take 5 cartons of cigarettes and 5 liters of liquor back as long as one of the bottles is a product made in the Virgin Islands.
So add shopping to your Things To Do list!
