What our customers say...

"No Issue"
★★★★★

"Good service and no issues. We took great care to minimize bringing any sand from the beach into the vehicle and shook out all the floor mats if any did sneak in. Pick up and drop off at the airport went smoothly and the drivers were all very friendly and professional. The credit card hold did take up to two weeks to disappear from the credit card, but over all, would choose again for island rental."

"Super Great Experience Renting From Olympic"
★★★★★

"Super great experience renting from Olympic. They worked with me to rent us a car even though I am under 25, which no one else would do. They were waiting outside the airport to pick us up when we arrived and the transport back to the airport was just as easy when we were headed home. The Kai we rented was clean and in great shape and got 30+ mpg even with the curvy roads and island driving. We still definitely be back when we return to St Croix."

10 Scenic Routes to Drive in Saint Croix, US Virgin Islands

1. North Shore Road (Route 80)

Best for: Ocean views, beaches, and lush hills
Distance: Approximately 10–12 miles

Drive from the area around Salt River Bay National Historical Park and Ecological Preserve west toward Cane Bay. This is often considered the island's most beautiful road, winding between green hills and the turquoise Caribbean Sea. You'll pass sugar mill ruins, overlooks, and beach access points.

2. East End Road to Point Udall (Route 82)

Best for: Sunrise and panoramic views
Distance: Approximately 15 miles one way

Follow Route 82 east from Christiansted all the way to Point Udall. The landscape changes dramatically into dry, cactus-covered hills with sweeping ocean vistas and views toward Buck Island Reef National Monument.

3. East End Scenic Loop

Best for: A complete sightseeing circuit
Distance: Approximately 30 miles

Drive: Christiansted → Route 82 → Point Udall → Route 60 (South Shore Road) → Christiansted.

This loop combines dramatic cliffs, beaches, salt ponds, farmland, and coastal viewpoints. It's one of the best half-day drives on the island.

4. South Shore Road (Route 60)

Best for: Quiet coastal scenery

The south shore receives fewer visitors than the north coast. Highlights include Grapetree Bay, windswept beaches, and expansive sea views. Birdwatchers especially enjoy the area around the Great Salt Pond.

5. Christiansted to Cane Bay

Best for: Beaches and snorkeling stops

Leave Christiansted and head northwest through rolling countryside before reaching the spectacular north coast. Stop at Cane Bay for swimming, diving, or lunch with ocean views.

6. Salt River to Carambola Coast

Best for: Tropical scenery

This route follows the greener section of the north shore, with rainforest-like vegetation, coastal cliffs, and several viewpoints overlooking the Caribbean Sea.

7. Point Udall to Jack and Isaac Bay Trailhead

Best for: Rugged coastal landscapes

The road near Point Udall offers some of the island's most dramatic scenery. Rolling hills, rocky coastline, and unobstructed ocean views make this one of the most photogenic drives on St. Croix.

8. The Beast and East End Hills

Best for: Elevated viewpoints

Known locally as "The Beast" because of its steep grades used in triathlon events, this route climbs into the East End hills and rewards drivers with spectacular island-wide vistas. Local residents often cite these hills as among the best viewpoints on St. Croix.

9. Frederiksted to Christiansted Cross-Island Drive

Best for: Seeing the whole island

Travel east across the island, combining the west coast, central agricultural lands, and historic towns. This drive showcases how diverse St. Croix's landscapes are in a relatively short distance.

10. Countryside Farm Roads Around Estate St. George

Best for: Rural Caribbean charm

Explore the island's interior roads around former sugar estates and farmland. You'll find historic plantation landscapes, grazing livestock, and rolling green hills that many visitors never see.
