km3045 Posted July 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Cruising in August on the Caribbean Princess. Scheduled hours in St. Thomas are 12:30pm - 10:00pm. Since most shore excursions will happen during the afternoon, what is there to do in the evening? Shopping, restaurants, bars, or shows? I've read that the shops closed around 5pm & I think it gets dark around 7pm. Any chance the shops will stay open later to accomodate our passengers? Also - there are 5 ships in port that day, I think, but the other 4 don't stay so late. Does that make it really overcrowded to do any of these things in Charlotte Amalie? What about safety? Thanks for the help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted July 12, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Shops and restaurants near the port usually stay open after 5 if there's a late ship. There's now a bowling alley across the street from Princess (Havensight) dock. It's open until 10 pm, I think. Some restaurants at Havensight have live music or theme nights some days. Havensight is a popular destination for locals and visitors because of parking and security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crystal04 Posted July 13, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I'm also researching what to do later on at night. My ship is from 10 to 10. I'm planning on going to St John until the 6pm ferry. Is there anything to do around the Red hook ferry terminal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted July 13, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Lots of bars/restaurants a short walk from the Red Hook ferry terminal. Many are open air. Fish Tails overlooks the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karabear15 Posted July 20, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 20, 2018 We will be in port 10a-10p as well...however on New Years Day. Will things be open as usual for the tourists, or do you think that most will be closed for the holiday? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted July 22, 2018 #6 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Most places will be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2PinaColadas Posted July 23, 2018 #7 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Red Hook is fun at night-- Duffy's is one of my favorite places. At Havensight there are several bars as well-- some have live music. Not sure about shopping after 5pm, we don't shop on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
