YouTube Video Description

Havensight Mall sits right at the West Indian Company Dock on St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands, and the location makes it an easy area to explore on your own when your cruise ship visits the island. We visited St. Thomas for the fifth time during our December 2025 cruise aboard the Holland America Koningsdam, and we spent a few hours taking a closer look at what the Havensight Mall area had to offer. In this video, we'll share an overview of the area, including what we found in each of the numbered buildings, a couple of food and drink stops we made along the way, and some practical details that can help you plan your own time in port.
