Creator's Key Takeaways

Overall, we enjoyed this parade. If you want a good spot, make sure you go on deck 5 and get there early so your kids or you can have the best seat or the best standing room area for this parade.

I ordered the pulled pork sandwich from Pigout Barbecue, which is served with kleslaw on the side. Overall, I didn't think the pulled pork sandwich was all that great, and the kleslaw was just okay.

It was really good. I would probably eat a hundred of those.

Overall, our excursion I think was pretty good. is mostly about Megan's beach with a little bit of a pirate museum in there.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check the Royal Caribbean excursion website for dress and packing recommendations before your trip.
Go to deck 5 early for a good spot at the Ocean Odyssey parade.
Wait for excursion prices to go on sale before booking.

Excursion cost and valueYou can probably get to Magens Bay on your own with a taxi for cheaper, but the excursion offers guaranteed return to the ship and no need to worry about logistics.

YouTube Video Description

We're on a 7-night cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Star of the Seas and today is Day 4 and we're in St. Thomas in the U.S.V.I! Come along with us as we take part in an incredible excursion that goes to the Pirate Treasure Museum, Magens Bay Beach, and Drake's Seat. We booked this Excursion on the Royal Caribbean Website and the star of the Show is the powdery sand and turquoise waters of Magens Bay Beach. This beach is home to several Sea Turtles, Black Tip Sharks, Crabs, and other sea animals. We also get some food and stroll along the water and enjoy the beautiful tranquility of this amazing beach. We also head up to the top of the mountain where Sir Francis Drake supposedly lookout to see which ships he was going to plunder next. The drive through St Thomas is spectacular. When we arrive back at the ship we discuss if this excursion was worth the money we spent. Back on the ship we go to the entertainment meet and greet, have lunch at the Aquadome Market, dinner at Giovanni's Italian Kitchen, and the get down at the Millennium Mania Dance Party on the promenade. We also try some more of our favorite bars signature drinks before recapping our jam-packed day on the world's largest cruise ship, Star of the Seas! We sailed on Star of the Seas in September 2025 on a 7-night Eastern Caribbean itinerary, visiting St. Thomas, St. Maarten, and CocoCay. We booked through Cruise.com and stayed in an Ocean View Balcony Stateroom on Deck 14.
