Redtravel Posted December 10, 2019 #1 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Just got email changing our stop from Vieques to St. Thomas. Does anyone know whether we tender or dock? If we dock, where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmidlapp Posted December 10, 2019 #2 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Will dock at havensight. If you do a search of ship schedule St Thomas it comes up west indies company which is havensight. I don't think much will be going on as we are the only ship at that dock plus it's a Sunday. The only other scheduled ship is the Summit and they are at crown bay.

Redtravel Posted December 11, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted December 11, 2019 St Thomas used to be very popular stop on many cruises. Now not many ships visit St. Thomas. Since we dock on a Sunday, are any stores at Havensight or in town open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmidlapp Posted December 11, 2019 #4 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Havensight website says some stores open sundays if ships are in port. Not so sure with us being only 200 pax. There is a local farmers market at yacht haven which is very close. Different subject, the 14th in San Juan they are having their lighted boat parade. Star Legend should have "front row" seats!!

cruisencrazy Posted December 11, 2019 #5 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Just did this cruise last month. Most of the shopping is open. The "old" shopping area in town is being nicely refurbished. It will be open and there is also a market (full of crafts and knockoffs) over there. It's not an easy walk because of construction, so unless you need to get in a workout, grab a taxi for $5 pp. Better option is to go to a beach, we like sapphire. The sky ride is also very close to where you will dock and will most likely be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailMaine Posted December 11, 2019 #6 Share Posted December 11, 2019 We are on the Legend for our B2B starting on the 14th. Thanks for the info on St Thomas. We are not too excited about this substitute port, but will make the best of it. Maybe a water taxi to a great beach. But the boat parade in San Juan sounds great! We are missing the Portland Maine annual boat parade of lights so this will certainly make up for it! Hope to see you on board!

jmbklj Posted December 12, 2019 #7 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I did this cruise last week on the Legend. Yes, there were shops open Sunday where we docked at Havensight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
