The Virgin Islands are two separate political entities, one belonging to the United Kingdom, and the other being a territory of the United States.

The islands to the West, St. Croix, St. John, St. Thomas, and Water Island make up the US territory, and the islands to the East, Anegada, Tortola, Jost Van Dyke, and Virgin Gorda with over 50 other smaller islands make up the UK territory.

Location - The US Virgin Islands are located on the continent of North America, they are the islands between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, east of Puerto Rico. The Virgin Islands are an Archipelago (cluster of islands), part of the Leeward Islands in the Caribbean Sea.

There are only two ways to get to the US Virgin Islands, by air or by water. The two major airports located in the US Virgin Islands are located on the island of St Thomas, and the other on the island of St. Croix.

Peak season means higher prices, busy tourist season, and sold out accommodation. Outside of these months (June to November), rooms are cheaper and the islands are less crowded.
