cruisin0504 Posted October 22, 2006 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2006 When we came in on the Golden Princess we were right across from the shopping area. Last winter on the Jewel we were much further away. Now we are scheduled to come in on the NCL Spirit and it would be helpful to know which of the areas we should expect to be in. Thanks.

flvol77 Posted October 22, 2006 #2 Share Posted October 22, 2006 When we came in on the Golden Princess we were right across from the shopping area.

Check out cruisecal.com Put in your information of when you are going....It will tell you how many ships are in port..Note that Havensight the main dock can handle up to three ships .... crown bay is now where Princess docks I think can handle two ships. The two times that I have been to St Thomas (both this year) NCL spirit docked at crown bay...but, now that Princess has a contract to dock at crown bay I don't know how that will change things. Also if there is a lot of ships in port they will drop anchor in the bay and tender you into downtown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Coaster Posted October 27, 2006 #6 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Islander, We are coming to St. Thomas the beginning of January. Do you know when the January 2007 ship's schedule will posted? I also want to thank you for your posts. They are very helpful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Islander Posted October 27, 2006 #7 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Hello East Coaster, You are very welcome ;). Best guess would be mid to late December for Jan. 07 docking schedule. --Islander ***** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantesab Posted October 27, 2006 #8 Share Posted October 27, 2006 We will be docking at crown bay on 12-7 from the CB. Are any of the store open yet? I see that 5 ships will be in port that day so I think I will stick close to the ship.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody14h Posted October 29, 2006 #9 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Is this a new dock? We have always docked at Havensight. Where is it in relation to Town and Havensight?? Volendam on the 30 Nov is scheduled to dock at Crown Bay. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Islander Posted October 29, 2006 #10 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Hello, Dantesab, The stores aren't open as yet at Crown Bay. If you want to stay close to the ship you could go to the beach at Emerald Beach which is closeby, you could go into downtown, you could head over to Water Island (the ferry departs from Crown Bay marina which is closeby). Woody, its not a new dock. Some ships have dock there all along, however a shopping area is being completed there and it will have increase usage by ships. Havensight is about 1.5 miles east of downtown and Crown Bay is a little over 1.5 miles west of downtown. --Islander ***** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
