Creator's Key Takeaways

I really enjoy vacationing in the Caribbean now after all these years of spending time down here

I would definitely recommend caution before you decide to rent a car

I don't think the cruise port itself is probably worth it but uh the nearby City of Charlotte amalay uh there's just so many great things to do and see

I'd highly recommend Blackbeard's castle that was amazing

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get off the boat to explore Charlotte Amalie
Visit Blackbeard's Castle for an excursion
See Megan's Bay for a picturesque beach
Check out the Virgin Islands National Park
Consider caution when renting a car due to driving awkwardness

YouTube Video Description

St. Thomas has two cruise ports - - The West India Company Dock (almost universally referred to as Havensight) and Crown Bay. Both are located on the south side of the island not far from Charlotte Amalie. Generally, the ships of Carnival Cruise Lines, Norwegian Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruises, and Royal Caribbean (except Oasis of the Seas and Allure of the Seas) dock at Havensight. Cunard, Princess, Holland America and Oasis and Allure typically dock at Crown Bay. Deeper draft ships such as Queen Mary 2, Oasis and Allure are required to dock at Crown Bay.
