Fodor's Review:

This rocky promontory, the easternmost point in the United States, is about a half-hour drive from Christiansted. A paved road takes you to an overlook with glorious views. More adventurous folks can hike down to the pristine beach below. On the way back, look for the castle, an enormous mansion that can only be described as a cross between a Moorish mosque and the Taj Mahal. It was built by an extravagant recluse known only as the Contessa. Point Udall is sometimes a popular spot for thieves. Residents advise taking your valuables with you and leaving your car unlocked so they won't break into your car to look inside.
