Eastern Caribbean - favorite excursions?

[Juliska]

Hello. I'm going to the eastern Caribbean on the Epic on January 12th and I'm picking out some excursions. Has anyone been on any that the cruise ship sponsors that you enjoyed? It's going to St. Maarten, St. Thomas, and Nassau.

We've been to St. Thomas twice (love that island!) And both times took the NCL sponsored excursion to Buck Island to snorkel in Shipwreck/Turtle Cove - I've heard it called both as there's a shipwreck at the bottom of the cove and you can sometimes see Sea Turtles. The snorkeling is great, clear water, good fish counts, beautiful. The catamaran ride going over and coming back are always great, with coming back being better since we're drinking rum punch!

Have you joined your roll call? We are on the ship directly before your trip so our review won't help you. We decided to do private excursions on both St. Maarten and St. Thomas. We doing Soualiga on St. Maarten and the Fury on St. Thomas. Both are snorkeling excursions which is my dh's fave thing. On Nassau we will play it by ear and maybe not do anything planned. I have heard others talk about the champagne catamaran to St. John on St. Thomas as a good excursion. I suggest you look at the specific ports boards at this point or check out the reviews on tripadvisor.

In St Maarten we LOVED the Tiki Hut Snorkel...One of our favorite excursions on any cruise we have taken. :)

We did a tour with Bernards tours in St. Maarten and absolutely loved it....recommend it highly if you want an overview of the island and some beverages all for one price :)

Stay on the ship in Nassau. There's nothing worth getting off for.

We just like walking around & shopping in St. Thomas.

I got a day pass to a Divi resort last time in St. Martan but didn't like it. I don't know what we're doing this time. If it's good I'll share when we get back. Several on our Roll Call recommend the America's cup regatta.

Nassau - rent a motor scooter. Not an official excursion but we would do that again no doubt about it! We were a good size group. About $70-80 per scooter and you can double-up if you want to save some costs. You can get them right there as you get off the boat. Traveled more than half the island, went to Atlantis.

Not sure what type of excursion you're looking to do, but me and my girl friend rented ATV's (4-wheelers) in St.Maarten, it was, BY FAR, the best excursion we ever did. We had a ball. It was like 4-5 hours. Rode the beaches, woods, and public streets with a tour guide. We booked it with NCL.
