TweetieSC Posted December 5, 2011 #1 Share Posted December 5, 2011 We are going to be there from noon to 8pm. Was thinking of booking a private tour operator's tour, but most seem to leave earlier in the day. Anyone have recommendations for what to do from noon to 5pm-ish, where to get dinner, and then what to do until time to get back on the ship? Should we just do a half day in St. Thomas and then go back to the ship for dinner around 7pm? These are some weird hours, and I'm not sure how to plan the day...:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is winter it is going to get dark no later than 5:30 which may limit what you can do. In the summer it will be light until about 7:30. I would try to arrange a private tour then go back to the ship and shop around Havensight until the shops close, and then eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betsy's Mom Posted December 5, 2011 #3 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Be back on the ship by dinner time. St Thomas is not the place you want to wander around after shops close at about 5-6 P.M. The downtown area is deserted and not particularly safe after dark. The taxi starter at the port can get you a taxi for an Island tour, just ask. B.

O2B@Cagain Posted December 5, 2011 #4 Share Posted December 5, 2011 On the other hand, if you are docked at Havensight, you can go up to Paradise Point, watch the sunset and still make it down before you sail.;) When ships are in late, many of the Havensight merchants stay open a bit longer.

blue_water Posted December 6, 2011 #5 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I would recommend Paradise Point for 2 or 3 hrs before leaving the island, several threads here with details. A great day is a beach (Sapphire for example) then PP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceanseagle12 Posted December 6, 2011 #6 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Totally agree with the suggestion of Paradise Point at sunset. I would love to experience that myself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
