The United States Virgin Islands is a United States territory, located in the Caribbean to the east of Puerto Rico and west of the British Virgin Islands. Very popular with American tourists (majority from cruise boats) coming to buy cheap jewellery and other expensive items.
Unfortunately unlike the beautiful British Virgin Islands, the US Virgin Islands are nowhere near as scenic, are quite over developed, overpopulated and not very friendly (if you're wondering why they're so different the hint's in the name). All this makes for average hitching.
The only international ferry links are to the British Virgin Islands as the US Virgin Islands/Puerto Rico ferry is no longer in operation.
Ferries to hop about the US Virgin Islands also exist.
