bluecookies Posted March 18, 2012 #1 Share Posted March 18, 2012 My wife and I are coming into St. Thomas on May 22 on the Oasis of the Seas. I looked at the schedule and noticed the Carnival Dream and Carnival Freedom will also be in port that day. I've heard some talk about crowded beaches at places like Meagan's Bay and Sapphire Beach. I know Oasis is a large ship, but I am unfamiliar with the other two. Any thoughts on how crowded it might? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted March 18, 2012 #2 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Since the Oasis docks at Crown Bay and Carnival docks at Havensight, visitors now spread out to more destinations than they did a few years ago. Many people who dock at Crown Bay have "discovered" Emerald Beach, because it's a short cab ride away so you get maximum beach time. Here's my slideshow of Emerald Beach. http://www.everytrail.com/view_trip.php?trip_id=1479043 Carnival ships dock at Havensight, so they're more likely to go to Magens or Sapphire. However, the better snorkeling beaches are on the East End of St Thomas, because nature blessed that area with more coral reefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecookies Posted March 19, 2012 Author #3 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I am a little familiar with that as I have docked at Havensight on another RCL ship and went to Meagans Bay. I was kind of thinking of Sappire this time since I hear the snorkeling is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
