Sandy Point National Wildlife Refuge, U.S. Virgin Islands
Sandy Point National Wildlife Refuge, located on the southwest corner of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands, is one of the most important sea turtle habitats in the Caribbean and one of the southernmost wildlife refuges in the United States. Established in 1984, the sanctuary covers an area of approximately 3 square kilometers and is known for its extensive sandy beaches, mangrove wetlands and coral reef ecosystems, where thousands of green sea turtles nest and lay their eggs from March to October each year, making it an important migratory route stopover for the globally endangered leatherback turtle. In addition to sea turtles, the area is home to a variety of birds, reptiles and marine life, making it a natural classroom for ecological research and environmental education. The reserve is open to the public, subject to strict environmental regulations to protect the fragile ecosystem and species diversity.
