Welcome Zippers!
The Carambola Zip Line adventure begins with a 30 minute ride on our custom, comfortable Safari Bus taking you to the very top of St. Croix and the start of our zip lines! Along the way you will experience exhilarating Caribbean views with photo stops, inspirational music, and hear all about our beloved island of St. Croix.

This line has a total vertical drop of 205 ft with speeds over 30 mph and soars more than 200 ft above and above the Carambola valley.
