13cheermom Posted April 20, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2019 So just looking at the port area, seems like a nice area to just walk round on your own and see the sites. We like to check things out on our timeframe whenever it's possible and of course safe to do. From everything I have read about St. Croix, it seems like this is the perfect place to do this. We will be on a 14-day cruise with lots of ports and other beach days, so with our first time to St. Croix, would just like to absorb the town area. For anyone that has visited here, does this seem reasonable? We recently went to Grenada and actually did this and got to experience so many different things and had a great time on our schedule (not a tour schedule), lol. Thanks for any input!

FredZiffle Posted April 30, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I don't remember there being much of anything around the port. Frederiksted seemed like just a regular town to me with not much for tourists. Drake may have some options since he lives there. We rented a car and drove across the island. That was actually a lot of fun since I'd never driven on the left side of the road before. A good place to get my feet wet since there were no confusing intersections and not a lot of traffic.

Thanks so much for responding. I think we've decided to take a tour and go over to Christiansted and explore and then come back to the port area. We were looking for a low-key day at this port.

drake2014 Posted May 23, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I love my town and I think you would certainly enjoy it. Lots of great little shops and boutiques, restaurants, bars, and beautiful churches. You can absolutely walk around and explore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Banditswife Posted August 3, 2019 #5 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I am not seeing the year for this thread. But my husband & I are on a longer port intensive cruise in Nov, 2019. We are hoping to just grab a taxi or walk the pier area when we dock in St Croix. Is this still possible? The craft booths "Drake" mentioned in another thread, sound great. Wondering if they will be there on Sat Nov 5, 2019. Also what is current cost of taxi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

my2monkees Posted October 7, 2019 #8 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Bandits wife - no I didn’t enter roll call. I was hoping to go on tour with Sweeney’s but so far we are only 2 booked and they don’t run tour unless at least 10 people total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
