You come off the cruise pier right into Arrivals Hall. Thenford Grey guides will be there waiting with a sign. Have a great time!!!!

Thank you. What is it, like a 2 min walk to the Arrivals Hall?

Have fun!!!! Can you come back and let us know what you thought of the tour and St. Kitts?

Absolutely I can do that. Won't be until the beginning of October though! I will fill you in with all the details.

I highly recommend Thriller Ocean Tours. I did this two weeks ago and it was one of the best tours I have every done. $70 each. Pick up at dock, exciting boat ride, best snorkeling all day, equipment provided, safe even for people who are less strong swimmers, great people, and great rum punch and snacks!

 

You can see the turtles for cheaper with a tour from the beach. But they won't take you to the coral reef or other shipwrecks where there are no people. If you want snorkeling, this is your tour. Oh and there are only 12-15 people on the tour so definitely not crowded! If I was staying in Barbados, I would go every day with these people! The owner runs the tour so really cares about you and what your experience is! Stephen is a great guy!

 

Enjoy!

Can you provide the information for Thriller Ocean Tours? Thank You

Thank you for this list OC Pat!

I was debating Dickenson Beach, and read the same review that you had typed out. I quickly changed my mind.

I think I am now going to do Turners Beach.

How far is it to Turners? How much is the taxi from the port?

I too would like to know this as well. Hopefully we can get a response.

What about Hawks Bill Beach?

How many ships are in Port on sane day with you? You can check via slaspa.com. If you're the only ship in Port, it may be tough to get 10 together. Have you posted via your roll call also. Good luck.

We are the only ship in the port that day. Yes I've posted in my roll call too with no luck!

You would think it wouldn't be that hard. Cruise ships hold thousands of people lol. Someone has to go haha!

For what it's worth, I booked with Thenford for my upcoming cruise which departs 9/24

Looks like I might have to resort to Pigeon Island/Pointe...

Still no one has booked with Mystic Man :( :( :( :(

Bumping this again

Who is going on the 9/24 to 10/1 trip with a stop in St. Lucia on 9/28?

Well, I need people to sign up LOL. I've been trying to book this excursion, but no one has signed up. They need a minimum of 8 people to go out. So who's with me, who will sign up? I have 2 people ready to go, just need 6 more people!

Been in contact with Mystic Man Tours, NO ONE has signed up for this excursion as of yet :(

Now what am I to do in St. Lucia?

Booked my excursion with Captain Alan

Just reserved my seating the other day with Thenford.

Cannot wait!

Reserved my spot the other day with Thenford. Excited about the trip.

Anything I need to know? How far of a walk is it from the dock to their Arrivals Hall?

Check out Blue Safari Tours,

 

They are awesome and do take you to a couple snorkel spots that I found fantastic, Fab and his wife do there best to show everyone a good time.

Could you please post the link for Blue Safari tours? Can you also provide anymore info about this snorkel trip as well?

Thank You

You might try bringing your own snorkel gear, take a cab to pigeon point, you can snorkel from shore. Many tours go there for same purpose. We bought good snorkel gear 20 years ago still use it, it's your own and clean. Pigeon point has an old bar in a stone building, plus a hill to climb for view, plus resteraunt, and bathrooms. It's a hidden gem!

I ALWAYS bring my own snorkel gear. I do not want to use someone else's gear.... No thanks lol..

How far is pigeon point from the cruise ship docks? How much would a cab ride cost too?

Thank You

St. Kitt Snuba was a great excursion. My family participated, including my 11 year old. Similar to diving, but It does not require dive certification. Better then just snorkeling because you can go 30-40 feet deep and stay under for the entire dive (about 30+ minutes under water)

A bus picked us up and dropped off at pier. It took about 20 minutes to get to beach site, which had a cafe and bar.

The cost (booked on board -Oasis of Seas) $94.00

Do you have the website for the company that you used? It was $94 total for your family?

 

Perhaps a 15 minute taxi ride. Dawn sometimes has moderate surf, which some feel makes snorkeling off the beach a no go. We stay at Dawn every year, and sometimes snorkel there, but there really is not that much there. If snorkeling is really important to you, Little Bay or Pinel might be a better idea.

Where are these beaches located?

I want to snorkel every island and I am having trouble finding companies that snorkel.

Thank you for the information.

Head to Dawn Beach and snorkel off shore.

How far is Dawn Beach from the cruise ship docks?

I think I am going to book this reservation. I will email them first with some questions. Was the boat a catamaran or just a regular boat?

After the tour, did you go to any beaches to relax and swim?

Highly recommend shasa catamaran and snorkeling with turtles!! Super couple and great time!!;

Can you please provide their information so I can look what they have to offer?

Thank You

I just emailed Mystic Man tours for some info regarding their trip.

Mysticmantours.com They do try to make it easy for you! A quick Google search brings it up also.

If you opt for a beach proposal, your driver would likely be happy to take pictures for you, or others on the beach, if anyone is around. Formal night can be great, although not so private, etc.

Good luck with your plans and congrats again.

Thank You. I am in the process of emailing them right now to get more info and pricing.
