barric Posted February 7, 2022 #1 Share Posted February 7, 2022 We arrive by cruise ship to Havensight. Is there an inexpensive shuttle, by land or sea, to the main Charlotte Amilie area? I thought we did one a couple years ago, but I cannot find any current info Thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted February 7, 2022 #2 Share Posted February 7, 2022 You can take a taxi. or open air bus. I think the fare is around $5-$6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a reasonable walking option? For our previous visits to St Thomas we docked at Crown Point which is in no way walkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted February 7, 2022 #4 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Probably a mile and a half to 2 miles. At least to the shopping areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For our previous visits to St Thomas we docked at Crown Point which is in no way walkable. We've actually walked to town from both piers, but you have to be up for it. Nicer walk from Havensight. One time we did the 99 Steps after walking to town. That was the sping after Hurricanes Irma and Maria, and they were still repairing the power grid. Pretty view from there! Some time ago I read that they were going to upgrade the road from Havensight to town, but that may have been put on hold due to Covid. Not sure if it was to include the walk along the waterfront. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautifulbill Posted February 13, 2022 #6 Share Posted February 13, 2022 It has been upgraded and looks great. You can walk to town but it is a hot walk and fairly long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted February 18, 2022 #7 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Loved docking at Havensight but now RCI only docks at Crown Bay. Take the open air taxi but if there's no ship docked at Havensight ...don't bother the shopping area will be pretty much closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cltnccruisers Posted February 19, 2022 #10 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Unless we decide to do an excursion we may just hang out in Havensight. We've done C-A several times and I always end up spending too much $$. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as there's a ship docked there the stores will be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA just offers the more historic feel…as you navigate all the barkers 🥴 One thought, just spending a couple hours at Paradise Point is a nice, easy way to enjoy the amazing view of the port and a nice lunch, usually with live music. You can tram up and taxi down if you want…😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
