Fort Christian played an important defensive role over the years. Now a historic attraction, you can only imagine some of the scenes its mighty walls have witnessed.

This history-filled fortress is often on the itineraries of visitors to St. Thomas. But Fort Christian isn't the area's only highlight. Magens Bay Beach, Coki Point Beach, and Blackbeard's Castle are some other worthwhile sights nearby.
