  1. Hi everyone,

    This is my second cruise and my first since 1999, so I imagine I'll see some changes.

    My daugher (age 14) and I (older) are sailing on Oasis of the Seas August 5. We're going to Nassau, St Thomas and St Maarten.

    I'm looking for excursion suggestions / general impressions on how to spend our time in St Thomas and Nassau. I have been told that St Thomas is good for shopping and Nassau is relatively boring.

    First of all, I'm wondering about general impressions? Are there interesting places to see in the city within walking distance of the ship? Is there okay shopping within walking distance of the ship? We aren't looking for anything too high end.

    In terms of excursions:

    My daughter would be interested in the beach or a city tour. I'd be interested in seeing some of the city. We'd both be pretty happy wandering around the city is there is some decent stuff to see and some okay shopping. Ideally I'd be happy with some time at the beach and a walk around the city. Going and spending 5 hours at a beach is less interesting to me.

    Atlantis could be interesting, I'd be curious about feedback or suggestions on that.

    I'd like to keep the cost of any excursions at around $100 per person. Less is obviously fine.

    Regarding St Maarten, we're planning an island tour but have not booked any. Suggestions welcome.

    Overall, I'd be very happy to hear people's impressions of these places and what they liked and didn't like. I'm open to any really great excursions which people have done that might not have occurred to me.

    Thanks very much.
