Yes, by all means do a search as recommended below, but in the meantime I'd recommend the following:

Plan on seeing the beer-drinking pigs - HONEST, it is not tacky (that thought kept me from going for years) and you and your kids will scream with laughter.

SCUBA (St. Croix Ultimate Bluewater Adventure) is excellent for diving instruction.

Take a safari tour with Sweeny http://www.gotostcroix.com/safaritours/ or an off-road tour with Tan Tan Tours http://www.stxtantantours.com/ or an airplane tour http://www.airventuresinparadise.com/airtours.htm or go horseback riding http://pws.prserv.net/paul-and-jills/ on the west end or http://www.stcroixlink.com/kerrys.htm at Cane Bay.

Hit the crab races for happy hour - they're a hoot and there are many excellent prizes.

Thanks Joanne for the info and links. really looking forward to this trip. its probably going to be one of our last with the kids, they'll be heading to college over the next couple of years, so i want to make it very special...do you know anything about the villa where we are staying?

Unfortunately, I don't know about most villas as I stay in town at the Hotel Caravelle. Not to rub it in, but I'll be there by this time tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!
