The capital is San Juan, an important center of Caribbean culture and transportation. The USVI are smaller and have fewer habitats and, as a result, fewer bird species.

I never researched the resort, imagining that it lacked the amenities my family wanted, but visiting for dinner allowed us to rent its grandeur without forking over the considerable room rates.
