Rare cruisestitch Posted February 11, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Probably Crown Bay but sometimes Celebrity uses Havensight and rarely they even tender in St. Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouremco Posted February 11, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) It appears that there will be only one other ship in port the day you'll be there, so probably Crown Point. Edited to change say Crown Point, not Havensight. Memory failing me! :( Edited February 11, 2018 by Fouremco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straughn Posted February 11, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 11, 2018 It is my understanding that RCI signed a contract to dock all ships at Crown Bay. This includes Celebrity. Last time I was in St. Thomas (March 2017), we docked at Crown Bay. When we got into downtown, we could see that there were only a couple of other ships at Havensight, plenty of room for more. We were the only ship at Crown Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaThruU Posted February 11, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 11, 2018 When I was in St. Thomas in January, the Celebrity Summit was docked at Crown Bay. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvcrusn Posted February 12, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Has anyone visited Emerald Beach since the hurricane and Celebrity's return to the island? Wondering about its condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they did sign a contract to dock in Crown Bay and that contract that started a bit over a year ago or so is a contract for the next 10 years....I miss docking at Havensight :loudcry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alcpa1 Posted February 12, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Luvcrusn Check the Ports of Call board - Caribbean for an update. Emerald Beach was not open in December but hopefully St. Thomas has made strides toward repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted February 12, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 12, 2018 The Summit docked in Crown Bay last month. I didn't even get off the ship. Hope Celebrity got lots of money to agree to dock there. Havensight is a much better docking spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be there on Sihouette next month. At least the taxis to town are cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
constantlyonthego Posted February 12, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Has anyone visited Emerald Beach since the hurricane and Celebrity's return to the island? Wondering about its condition. I was on Summit in January and went to Emerald Beach. It was open, although some of the damage was still evident. We rented 2 chairs under an "umbrella" and bought a couple of beers and had lunch at the restaurant there. No issue, and a quick $4 taxi pp ride from Crown Bay dock.

We've stayed in St. Thomas on many land vacations, and visited numerous times on cruises. Emerald beach has been our favorite for a while now, easy to get to and from, quiet and all the facilities we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miched Posted February 13, 2018 #15 Share Posted February 13, 2018 We were told by one Officer that Celebrity uses Crown Bay because all of the tour sites are closer to it. Don’t know if it is true or not since we haven’t been on a tour there in years. Don’t mind the walk from there to the main town. It takes about 30 or 45 minutes and they have signs posted along the way showing the distance and walking time. Many times the shopping expert will have free shuttles that take you into town to one of the shops for their drawing and a welcome glass of bubbly with cookies. You are on your own to get back. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEcruzr Posted February 13, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 13, 2018 They are slowly building up the Crown Bay pier area. I still like Havensight better... but I dislike CB less now. LOL In Last month it was still just $4 each for a quick ride into town. Getting a ride back is very easy. Just walk down a sidewalk. They slow down and ask if you want a ride back to the ship. We took an open vehicle into town and a closed van on the way back. I had stopped going into town when X was docking at Havensight. I just stayed there. It's nice to go walk around again!
