Cruising is back and we are in Charlotte Amalie St. Thomas on the Celebrity Edge. We're going to give you a tour of what you’ll experience here when you walk around the port. This can help you to understand if you should pick an excursion or not. Stay tuned to find out what we thought and how you can prepare for your day in Charlotte Amalie. For arrivals and departures at Charlotte Amalie St. Thomas cruise port it is nice there is a dock and no tendering needed. The dock is not long at all and the shore excursions pick up is right at the end. If you are looking to take a taxi you walk through the port shopping area and there is a taxi pick up on the other side. It only takes a few minutes to walk through the shopping area. In terms of masks you are supposed to wear them when inside and outside at the port. In terms of port atmosphere there is a shopping area at the Charlotte Amalie St. Thomas port. The shopping area has all the typical shops and essentials you see in a port. There are a lot of souvenir shops that are all locally owned and a camera store with crucial items you may have forgotten ashore. There are a couple bars and restaurants you can stop to have a drink, enjoy the views and take a mask break. Also if you have forgotten anything there is a small pharmacy as well. The port was not very busy as most people getting off the ship did excursions and there were some others like us who walked around the port or took local transportation. There is a lot of shade which is nice if you are waiting for people in the shops or have done a bit of shopping and are waiting for your excursion. There are some renovations in the back so there will be even more shops and shade. A question a lot of people ask is what things to do in Charlotte Amalie St. Thomas? We just wanted to mention a couple things that are close to the port to do. If you are vaccinated most cruise lines allow you to explore the port on your own. Be sure to check the rules for each port with your cruise line. With Celebrity we were able to explore on our own. We are focusing on what is right at the port but wanted to highlight a few options that aren't far away. There are some beautiful beaches you can head to including Coki Beach, Magens Bay, Sapphire Beach and Secret Harbour Beach. The oldest standing structure in the Virgin Islands is Fort Christian and from there you have gorgeous views of Charlotte Amalie Harbor. If you are looking for something on the more extreme side you might want to check out Tree Limin’ Xtreme Zipline. I have never done a zip line before but the views do look amazing. We know there are a lot more experiences to do. If you are choosing to go on your own, be sure to check it is open beforehand. Some companies in Charlotte Amalie St. Thomas have not opened yet or have adjusted hours. We hope that you enjoyed our video about Charlotte Amalie St. Thomas cruise port.
