Largest of the U.S. Virgin Islands

STCROIX

This Caribbean island is known for its historic Danish colonial architecture and vibrant coral reefs at Buck Island. It's also the birthplace of Alexander Hamilton.

The clue asks for the name of the largest island in the U.S. Virgin Islands, which is a straightforward geography question. The answer is "STCROIX" (often spelled St. Croix), pronounced "saint CROY," a Caribbean island known for its history and beaches. The spelling might seem unusual because it’s French-derived, but in crosswords, it’s typically written without spaces or punctuation. If you’ve heard of the rum or the island’s Danish colonial past, that’s a helpful hint.
