We are in the same situation as you and seeking advice for a beach day in St. Thomas in January 2023 for our group of 9 adults. We are the last of 5 ships to arrive in port 12:30 pm to 8:00 pm and wondering how difficult it will be to get our group of 9 to either Magen's Bay or Secret Harbour for a couple of hours on the beach. I am wondering if we are better off hiring a boat for a half day private charter to take us to a beach on St. John. Not interested in snorkeling, just a few hours on a great beach. Has anyone done a half day afternoon charter 1pm-5pm to St. John from St. Thomas? Thanks for your suggestions.

Thank you for your replies! Clyde, the space does concern me so will try to edit out. Jo-Anna, sounds like it's never easy with your name! We will have a great time regardless how they document our name.

Any other Celebrity passengers out there with an apostrophe in their last name? We are first time Celebrity passengers sailing in January. Our last name includes an apostrophe and the apostrophe appears on our US Passports. Just received our documents with no apostrophe on our Celebrity documents. For example, last name O'Malley and cruise documents say O Malley. Does Celebrity not recognize the apostrophe in their system? Anyone else have this issue? From experience, when this happens our last name becomes Malley and middle initial incorrectly appears as O. Trying to avoid any last minute issues with slightly different names on documents vs. passports.
