We did it on a Solstice Class ship. It was a fun hour long catamaran ride over with a really nice picnic spread for lunch on arrival. A very beautiful and fun ride. Matter of fact we e joyed it so much that we have it booked again in Feb on the Beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions on what to do on Nevis that we might not otherwise think about doing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is very little description on the app. Only “ a sea taxi over, with a beach chair awaits you on golden sand. Cool off in sea, treat yourself to a famous beach bar or short stroll to The Belmont Duty Free shopping complex.” But very few choices left and it was 30% off.

This description does not sound like the one we were on. We were not near a shopping complex or a beach bar. Sounds like something different.

Rare hcat Posted December 7, 2023 #6 Share Posted December 7, 2023 We are signed up for a similar excursion on the Ascent in January, ..but I believe it involves a tour (?) and a diff lunch.. I will look at our paperwork and post the details. We have never been to Nevis and are looking forward to it.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pricey! we did not check for any sales! My notes say it is a 6 hr excursion on a ferry type boat. Includes craft stalls, lunch at a beach restaurant ( with bthrm) .. sorry no more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this was closer to $140pp when we booked back in May so I can imagine it’s gone up a bit since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NMTraveller Posted December 7, 2023 #10 Share Posted December 7, 2023 IMHO an excursion at Nevis is better than St. Kitts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for all who shared comments. I looked back on the app excursions and saw both of these you referenced - the catamaran and the sea taxi with tour, lunch beach. They are sold out. Only one left was the one I booked. And lucky me, when I booked yesterday it was still 30% off. Today it is only 15%! The description with sea taxi landing at Charlestown, it seems you get in a vehicle for tour. I did more google search on “beach with famous bar and shopping” - I think we will drive to that as it appears to be Pinney’s beach, Sunshine Bar and shopping is all in that area. So yes I agree - it will all be good! Enjoy your cruisemon Ascent! I had a friend on board the 4 day in November launch and she said it was gorgeous and loved it!

St Kitts has quite a bit to offer aside from tourist places..and port stores with items made in China..We have acquired some nice crafts and artwork. But, we have been all around St Kitts and hope Nevis will be a nice experience. I am going to be watching a 3 hr program (for work) that compares Hamilton's bio with the Broadway show which I did not see. Sounds interesting..

Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted December 7, 2023 #14 Share Posted December 7, 2023 We have been on a Princess excursion to Nevis that was wonderful. we took a big boat to the island. They played lots of music on the boat to make it fun. Then we had an island tour, followed by beach time on the main beach. We would go back.

It was one of the better ones during our cruise and we sampled four of them. The guided tour was good, the lunch was good and the beach was average, but that wasn't the main focus of the trip for us. Nevis is more picturesque and less depressing than St. Kitt's. I would certainly recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
